The songs explore the delicate edges of love and life and her long standing fear of endings and goodbyes, a feeling she describes as moving through the world like a visitor.

    Lunch and Learn: Heroines Aplenty

    Tennessee State Museum, 1000 Rosa L Parks Blvd, Nashville · verified Oct 9
    See details

    A talk with historian Dr. Antoinette G. van Zelm looks at how writers have portrayed women who lived in what is now Tennessee during the Revolutionary era from 1770 to 1810. It traces how nineteenth and early twentieth century accounts often praised these figures as devoted mothers and overlooked heroes, then explains how the rise of social history in the 1960s and 1970s broadened the narrative to more fully include Native and African American women. The program highlights especially extensive scholarship on Nan-ye-hi, also known as Nancy Ward, frequently referred to as the Beloved Woman or War Woman of Chota, and concludes with ideas for future research on women of this period in Tennessee. This Lunch and Learn is held in person in the Museum’s Digital Learning Center. Optional boxed meals from Apple Spice Nashville are available for $12.24, including a sandwich, chips, and a cookie, and must be ordered in advance through the ticket registration page.
