Presenting Race and Slavery: The Manassas National Battlefield Park Case Study

Virginia

The National Park Service is constantly developing new approaches to interpreting cultural resources with overlapping themes in American history. Not long ago Sandra R. Heard partnered up with NPS and George Washington University to produce a scholarly research paper offering new solutions for presenting race and slavery at historic sites. This case study provides useful recommendations for historic sites seeking new and innovative models for interpreting race and slavery. For more details, see the Manassas Final Report on the National Park Service Web site.
