Landscapes of Freedom: Rivers of Survivance

April 11, 2026


The history of our region traditionally centers European settlements and the late 18th century battle to establish independence from Britain. Less visible are the movements of peoples and the pursuit of livelihoods and community that existed prior to commemorated military events and continues through present day. Explore the shifting populations and maps of the region through the lens of indigenous scholarship to illuminate beyond 250.

This program is part of three related programs presented in partnership between Greensboro History Museum, Greensboro Public Library, Guilford Courthouse National Military Park and Guilford College. This project is supported through a grant from America 250 NC, a program of the NC Department of Natural and Cultural Resources.
