SUMMARY:Our Story Virtual Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:“A Nation’s Founding from an Indigenous Perspective”\nSmokeSygnals ​Steven Peters’ virtual talk about the exhibit “Our” Story: 400 Years of Wampanoag History \nHistory is often portrayed as having clean lines – absolute start and end dates\, clear sides of good and bad\, and a line of civility and savagery. When it comes to the foundation of this country\, history books tend to focus on the Mayflower arrival in 1620 and the Harvest Festival that came to be known as Thanksgiving in 1621. The myths that have surrounded these events have shaped the world that we know\, but the actual events were far different. What became the beginning of one people also marked the tragic downfall of another. We will explore these events and the events that preceded them to gain a better understanding of our shared history and how the clean lines in the history books avoided a far blurrier past. \nClick for REGISTRATION REQUIRED

SUMMARY:A Virtual Talk with Author David Silverman
DESCRIPTION:The Eastham Public Library presents\, No Refuge: Colonialism and the Wampanoags of Cape Cod; A Virtual Talk with Author David Silverman \nThis lecture will explore colonialism in the lives of the Wampanoags of Cape Cod across the centuries. Though Cape Cod managed to escape the violence of King Philip’s War of 1675-76\, that should not overshadow how the English and their successors exploited Cape Wampanoags over the long term. \nTogether we will trace how the Wampanoags both suffered under and mitigated colonial landed expansion\, Christian evangelism\, debt peonage\, court-ordered servitude\, and racism. The fact of Wampanoag survival speaks less to the absence of destructive colonial influences on the Cape\, than Wampanoag resourcefulness and certain benefits of geography. \nDavid J. Silverman (Ph.D.\, Princeton\, 2000) specializes in Native American\, Colonial American\, and American racial history. His most recent book is This Land is Their Land: The Wampanoag Indians\, Plymouth Colony\, and the Troubled History of Thanksgiving. He is also the author of Thundersticks: Firearms and the Violent Transformation of Native America; Red Brethren: The Brothertown and Stockbridge Indians and the Problem of Race in Early America; and Faith and Boundaries: Colonists\, Christianity\, and Community among the Wampanoag Indians of Martha’s Vineyard\, 1600-1871. \nRegister at easthamlibrary.org \nThis program is part of the Eastham 400 Commemoration.

SUMMARY:WOMR Celebrates Mayflower Anniversary On Air
DESCRIPTION:Community radio station teams up with Harwich festival for an anniversary-date concert \nProvincetown\, November 6: On Wednesday\, November 11th\, WOMR will play 60 plus minutes of music from the Harwich (UK) Festival of the Arts\, the community radio station announced today. \nThe event—called the Mayflower Connection—is part of the celebration of Provincetown 400\, a reminder that 400 years ago the Mayflower sailed from Harwich to Provincetown\, arriving at the tip of the Cape on November 11th.  In celebration of the voyage and the ties it established between the UK and the North American continent\, the show will air at 1:00 pm ET and will feature performances and music showcased at this year’s virtual Harwich Arts Festival. \nThe Mayflower Connection program will contain a broad spectrum of music including jazz\, folk\, and classical from major performing artists in the UK\, including Alex Hart\, Philip Clouts\, and Alina Bzhezhinska. \n“We’re very excited about the Mayflower Connection\,” says John Braden\, executive director of WOMR. “We’re hoping that it’s the first of many continuing collaborations between the two communities and are looking forward to an ongoing relationship with the festival.” \nThe Mayflower was built in Harwich (pronounced Harich or Harridge) sometime before the year 1600 and was commanded and part-owned by her master\, Captain Christopher Jones. Harwich itself is a combination working port and seaside tourist destination not entirely unlike Provincetown. \nWhile most of the Mayflower 400 activities were postponed due to the coronavirus\, others have gone online as virtual events. Festival organizers plan to move some of the events to 2021. \nABOUT WOMR: WOMR (OuterMost Community Radio) went on the air in 1982. Over the years\, the station expanded and currently broadcasts at 92.1 FM as well as 91.3 FM\, reaching listeners throughout Cape Cod and the South Shore\, and streaming worldwide at womr.org. More at the website. \nABOUT THE FESTIVAL: Harwich Festival of the Arts is an annual celebration of music and the arts with live performances and events in Harwich\, Essex\, UK. More at the website.

SUMMARY:MAYFLOWER’S “STEPHANO”
DESCRIPTION:MAYFLOWER’S “STEPHANO” \nOnline chat with Hit and Run History’s Andrew Buckley \nCove Burying ground is the final resting place of two Mayflower passengers – siblings Giles Hopkins and Constance (Hopkins) Snow. Born in southern England\, they had grown up hearing tales of their father’s misadventures across the Atlantic on Bermuda and in Virginia a decade before they set forth on their own journey of migration. \nCape Codder Andrew Buckley grew up with this story too. His mother\, Lucy Jane (Hopkins) Buckley\, was born in a midwife’s house next to the Cove burying ground and the family homestead still stands on Hopkins Lane in East Orleans \nSo the Two-time Emmy-nominated producer and host of public media’s Hit and Run History decided the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower’s arrival was the best time to focus on New Plymouth’s iconoclast tavernkeeper’s connection to Shakespeare’s drunken and mutinous “Stephano” in The Tempest. In their Gumshoe Historian style\, Buckley and crew seek out the reality of a man who was everywhere at the founding of America. \nAt 7 PM on Wednesday\, September 2\, Eastham Library will host an online discussion with Buckley and show clips from his film “Stephano: The True Story of Shakespeare’s Shipwreck.” \nA production of the Cape Cod Community Media Center\, the program was awarded a pre-production grant from Mass Humanities. \nThe program starts online at 7:00 PM on September 2. The link will be available on easthamlibrary.org at 6 PM that day. For more information\, go to the Facebook event listing at Hit and Run History Facebook. \nThis program is part of the Eastham 400 Commemoration. \nWatch the trailer here: https://youtu.be/olsf9D2B2S4
