SUMMARY:Second Friday Lecture: From Prison Guards to Prisoners: The Story of the Nineteenth Wisconsin
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, November 8  |  12:00pm – 1:00pm  |  Speaker: Larry Desotell \nThe presentation will track the history of this little known regiment from Wisconsin. After forming and training at Camp Utley in Racine\, the regiment was stationed at Camp Randall to guard Confederate prisoners sent there after the Battle of Island No. 10 in April 1962. The talk will then concentrate on the regiment’s battle history\, as members of the VII Corps and later the Army of the James\, and how almost the entire regiment was killed\, wounded\, or taken prisoner at the Second Battle of Fair Oaks. These prisoners\, who once served as guards\, now tasted prison life from a different angle. \nLarry Desotell was born and raised in Racine\, Wisconsin and graduated from St. Catherine’s High School. He received a B.A. from the University of Wisconsin and a M.A. in Political Science from Northern Arizona University. He taught United States History and Political Science at Arrowhead High School for 32 years. He is the author of “The Captured\, the Sick\, and the Dead: Confederate Soldiers At Camp Randall\,” (2020) and “The Confederate Rest of the Story\,” published in the Wisconsin Magazine of History (Spring 2021).

SUMMARY:He Had No Army: The Hornets Nest at Shiloh
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, January 18  |  1pm – 2:30pm  |  Instructor: Tom Arliskas  |  $12 ($15 for non-members)  |  Register Here \nAuthor Tom Arliskas’ workshop will consider how the Federal Army was able to hold the position of the infamous Hornet’s Nest at the center of the Union lines for 6 hours during the first day of the Battle of Shiloh while the rest of the Union Forces fell back to the Tennessee Riverbank. Arliskas will use the words of those who were there that day–Generals Benjamin Prentiss\, W.H.L. Wallace\, and Steven A. Hurlbut\, their Brigade Commanders and their Colonels–to tell what happened. Were the Confederate forces untrained and poorly armed as described by their commanding General Albert Sidney Johnston? Was it the fighting spirit of the Western Soldier or was it Rifles vs. Smoothbores and Artillery that ruled the day?

SUMMARY:Kindness in a Cup of Coffee
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, January 23  |  6:30pm – 7:30pm  |  Presented by Doug Dammann and Steve Acker  \nOne of the items that brought together the Civil War soldiers and sometimes led to moments of civility and understanding was coffee.   No single item of food or drink meant as much to Civil War soldiers.  They talked about coffee\, wrote about coffee\, and dreamed about coffee.  Based on first hand written accounts\, this program describes the different methods Civil War soldiers obtained\, brewed and shared their coffee and how these actions sometimes brought them brief moments of peace\, comfort and kindness. \nEach year\, the Kenosha Coalition for Dismantling Racism hosts a week affiliated with continuing Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s message of kindness and community. In 2025\, Kindness Week programming will occur from January 17-25.
