These monuments invoked emotional reactions due to their conflicting meaning and significance\, which led to their vandalism during the Civil War and postbellum period. Destruction of monuments at places like Bull Run\, Vicksburg\, and Yorktown were figurative attacks on the United States and the Confederacy and they stood as literal and representative symbols that connected nineteenth-century Americans to the past. \n\n\n\nAlthough many think of the vandalism of Civil War monuments as a current event\, this talk will explore the destructive nature of nineteenth-century Americans towards the constructed battlefield. The talk will illuminate how the vandalism and destruction of Civil War memorials is not a new phenomenon\, but rather\, these actions are as old as the conflict itself. Furthermore\, the study of these pieces of material culture helps us better understand the beliefs and hopes of those living throughout the Civil War era. \n\n\n\nCurrently a doctoral candidate studying history at West Virginia University where she also received her master’s degree\, Abbi Smithmyer grew up in Butler\, Pennsylvania\, attending school at Slippery Rock University for her undergraduate studies. Her dissertation combines cultural\, memory\, and material culture studies to explore the ways monuments faced vandalism and destruction during and shortly after the Civil War. Her research has been published in the American Nineteenth Century History\, the Southern Historian\, as well as Emerging Civil War. While teaching classes on U.S. History at WVU\, Abbi’s knowledge of the Civil War era has been bolstered by multiple summers at various historical sites and battlefields including the Seminary Ridge Museum\, Fredericksburg & Spotsylvania National Military Park\, Petersburg National Battlefield\, and most recently at Manassas National Battlefield Park. \n\n\n\n2nd Saturday lectures are made possible by the Massey Charitable Trust  URL:https://carnegiecarnegie.org/event/2nd-saturday-civil-war-series-monument-vandalism-and-destruction-during-the-civil-war-and-postbellum-period-with-abbi-smithmyer/ LOCATION:Andrew Carnegie Free Library & Music Hall\, 300 Beechwood Avenue\, Carnegie\, PA\, 15106\, United States CATEGORIES:2023,Past Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://carnegiecarnegie.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/MetaSlider-Web-Event-1-1.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20230125T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20230125T120000 DTSTAMP:20260501T020116 CREATED:20221221T191948Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230126T182340Z UID:10000588-1674640800-1674648000@carnegiecarnegie.org SUMMARY:Computer skills for English learners with Literacy Pittsburgh: Google Calendar DESCRIPTION:Join Literacy Pittsburgh for this series of computer classes\, just for English language learners! \n\n\n\nIn this class\, you’ll learn all about Google Calendar.

Gender Queer follows Maia Kobabe (who uses e/em/eir pronouns) in eir journey of identity\, self-acceptance\, and love. It also serves as a helpful introduction to gender identity – what it means\, how it works\, how to think about it. Gender Queer has been the target of numerous book bans since its publication in 2019 – in fact\, it has been the most targeted title in the United States for the past two years. \n\n\n\nCopies of the book are available at the Library’s checkout desk.

The thinning ranks of the Grand Army of the Republic (G.A.R.) were gathering for their 28th National Encampment\, and members from across the country prepared to meet old comrades once again. \n\n\n\nThe G.A.R. represented certain values for all of its members through their main principles\, “Fraternity\, Charity\, Loyalty\,” yet there were still many inequities to overcome for the organization’s African American membership. An event such as this was the perfect opportunity for those in attendance to discuss national issues at large\, at a time when political and social strife intersected with how the late war would be remembered. \n\n\n\nRich Condon is a historian from Pittsburgh\, Pennsylvania with a BA in public history from Shepherd University. For ten years he has worked with a multitude of sites and organizations including The Battle of Franklin Trust\, Soldiers & Sailors Memorial Hall and Museum\, Harpers Ferry National Historical Park\, Flight 93 National Memorial\, and since Spring 2020 Rich has served as a park ranger at Reconstruction Era National Historical Park in Beaufort\, South Carolina. He has written for Civil War Times\, The American Battlefield Trust\, as well as Emerging Civil War\, and operates the Civil War Pittsburgh blog\, which focuses on the interpretation of Western Pennsylvania’s role in the Civil War. \n\n\n\n2nd Saturday Lectures made possible by the Massey Charitable Trust URL:https://carnegiecarnegie.org/event/2nd-saturday-civil-war-series-fraternity-charity-and-loyalty-politics-memory-at-pittsburghs-28th-national-encampment-of-the-grand-army-of-the-republic-with-rich-condon/ LOCATION:Andrew Carnegie Free Library & Music Hall\, 300 Beechwood Avenue\, Carnegie\, PA\, 15106\, United States CATEGORIES:2022,Past Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://carnegiecarnegie.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/MetaSlider-Web-Event.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20221112T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20221112T120000 DTSTAMP:20260501T020116 CREATED:20221025T210102Z LAST-MODIFIED:20221116T165702Z UID:10000566-1668250800-1668254400@carnegiecarnegie.org SUMMARY:Making with Artsmiths of Pittsburgh: Fall Feasts DESCRIPTION:Join Jena Scheib of the Artsmiths of Pittsburgh for a closer look at the food that we gather to enjoy together this month.
