SUMMARY:"The Times that Try Men's Souls" The American Revolution by Ken Burns
DESCRIPTION:Mississippi University for Women will present the third episode titled “The Times that Try Men’s Souls” from the new Ken Burns documentary The American Revolution on April 27 at 6pm in the Nissan Auditorium in Parkinson Hall. \nThis episode covers the period from July 1776 to January 1777. The Revolution\, now a war for American independence\, faces its toughest challenge yet as General Washington tries to defend New York City from invasion by sea. The resulting Battle of Long Island is a huge defeat for the Americans\, who narrowly escape and spend the next several months on the run. In late December\, Washington’s army regroups and prepares to attack an outpost in Trenton\, New Jersey.​ \nThe entire documentary is 6 episodes total with each episode running approximately 2 hours in length. \nAdmission is free and open to the public.​ \nFor more information\, call the MUW Department of History\, Political Science\, and Geography at (662) 329-7390.

SUMMARY:The American Revolution in the Gulf South by Dr. Max Grivno
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Max Grivno will present The American Revolution in the Gulf South on Monday April 20 at 6pm at Mississippi University for Women. \nThe history of the American Revolution along the Gulf South is seldom told. Although most of the Europeans who called the region were sympathetic to the British — or at least hoped to remain neutral — the conflict soon engulfed the territory of what would\, in time\, become Louisiana\, Mississippi and Florida. \nDr. Grivno will examine how the American Revolution transformed the Gulf South. How the Americans\, British and Spanish vied for control of the Mississippi River and Gulf seaports\, and how the Choctaws and Chickasaws struggled to preserve their homelands by courting the rival powers. He will discusses the consequences of the Revolution for the people of the Gulf Coast. In the aftermath of the war\, the Spanish and the Americans vied to control Natchez and the territory around present-day Vicksburg\, while native confederacies like the Choctaw and Chickasaw grappled with the rising power of the United States.​ \nDr. Grivno is a Professor of History at the University of Southern Mississippi. In 2011\, he published Gleanings of Freedom: Free Labor and Slavery along the Mason-Dixon Line\, 1790-1860. Dr. Grivno’s teaching interests include the Old South\, slavery\, labor history and Mississippi history.​ \nFor more information\, call the MUW Department of History\, Political Science\, and Geography at (662) 329-7390.
