And they are my life. I am a library and museum practitioner with over twenty years of experience in leading museums, libraries, and educational initiatives with forward-facing vision. As a public historian, I study late-19th- and 20th-century African American history with an interdisciplinary specialization in educational history. My research interests include African American intellectual activism, race relations in interracial organizations, and the long civil rights struggle in the North. My academic and professional pursuits are centered on the notion that Black history is American history and it enriches the lives of all. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ea8f9f7810953148e8f45ea/20eb2217-e8ce-40f3-87de-e69d309ad8f8/IMG_2471.jpg Home - Latest Media Project DeBardelaben Discusses Nat Turner on C-SPAN LaNesha McCoy (DeBardelaben) gives opening reflections on the life of Nat Turner in a conversation with Turner’s great-great-great grandson, Bruce Turner.
