摘要
露西·f·西姆斯(Lucy F. Simms)是一位教育家,她在20世纪之交让弗吉尼亚成千上万的黑人学生实现了不可能的目标,但她在学术历史上几乎完全没有被描绘出来。这篇文章描述了一个社区大学和k -12的合作伙伴关系,他们制作了一个永久性的展览和配套网站,保存了西姆斯的故事,以她的名字命名的学校,以及被那个空间改变了生活的男人和女人。它还探讨了当地空间的活力,以恢复黑人妇女的生活,以及数字和物理形式在传记和档案恢复项目中的价值。
Race, Space, and Celebrating Simms: Mapping Strategies for Black Feminist Biographical Recovery
Abstract Lucy F. Simms was an educator who made the improbable possible for thousands of Black students in Virginia at the turn of the twentieth century, but she remains almost entirely unmapped in academic histories. This essay describes a community-university-K-12 partnership that produced a permanent exhibit and companion website that preserves Simms’ story, the school named in her honor, and the men and women whose lives were transformed by that space. It also explores the vitality of local spaces to the recovery of Black women’s lives and the value of digital and physical modalities in biographical and archival recovery projects.
