Telling the Untold Stories: The Importance of Black Ancestry in American History

May 18, 2023

Featuring Rachel Jamison Webster, Robert Lett, and Dino Robinson. Moderated by Christine Sneed

Hosted by the MA in Writing and MFA in Prose and Poetry Programs housed in NU’s School of Professional Studies.

In this online One Book, One Northwestern event, Northwestern University professor Rachel Jamison Webster and her cousin and collaborator, Robert Lett, will discuss Webster's recently published book, Benjamim Banneker and Us: Eleven Generations of an American Family. They will be in conversation with Christine Sneed, faculty director of the School of Professional Studies' graduate creative writing program, and Dino Robinson, Founder of the Shorefront Legacy Center for Black History. In her book, Rachel talks with Robert and other cousins, all of whom are descendants of Benjamin Banneker, the Revolutionary era clockmaker, surveyor, and astronomer. Banneker was the author of bestselling almanacs in his lifetime, and corresponded with Thomas Jefferson, imploring him to eradicate slavery in a country devoted to liberty. Benjamin Banneker and Us is much like Clint Smith's How the Word is Passed in that it is structured as a personal quest to examine how history is told, and to memorialize Black ancestors and figures who have been excluded. Both books are prodded forward through conversation with others. In writing her book, Webster interspersed documentary and oral histories from her family with contextual historical research. Dino Robinson will talk about the importance of oral histories in African American families and the work of the Shorefront Legacy Center.

Featured Panelists:

Rachel Jamison Webster is Professor of Creative Writing in the English Department of Northwestern University and teaches in our program. She is the author of Benjamin Banneker and Us: Eleven Generations of an American Family, (Henry Holt, 2023)—a book of creative nonfiction that explores ancestry, race, gender, and justice in American history. She embarked on a collaborative process in the writing of this book, as she and her DNA cousins discussed racial justice, genealogy, and the stories of their ancestors, which include the African American surveyor and astronomer, Benjamin Banneker. Rachel earned her MFA in Poetry from Warren Wilson and has published four books of poetry and cross-genre writing, including, Mary is a River which was a finalist for the 2014 National Poetry Series; September: Poems; The Endless Unbegun; and The Sea Came Up & Drowned, which combines erasure poems and Rachel’s collage artwork to meditate on our extractive economy and fractured relationship to the earth. Rachel’s poems and essays often appear in anthologies and journals, including Poetry, Tin House, and The Yale Review.

Robert Lett is a cousin of Rachel's and a collaborator on the book, Benjamin Banneker and Us: Eleven Generations of an American Family. Robert has preserved the family's oral histories and has also compiled documentary histories from the Banneker-Lett line. Robert grew up in rural Boone County, Kentucky, where his mother’s ancestors had been enslaved until his great great grandmother purchased herself and her husband from enslavement. He was raised by his educator parents to know about the bravery of his ancestors and to apply himself to his dreams. The family moved from Kentucky to Pasadena California, where Robert attended John Muir High School and left during his senior year to travel the world with the musical touring company “Up With People.” Robert worked for the State Bar of California as an Investigations Clerk and an American Red Cross Administrator before spending 24 years as an educator. He most recently worked at Southwestern Academy, an International Boarding and Day School, where he served as a guidance counselor and coach for Girls’ Track & Field and Boys’ Basketball.

Morris (Dino) Robinson, Jr. is the Production Manager at Northwestern University Press. Previously, he served in creative positions in advertising, and later operated Robinson Design. He holds a BA degree in Communication Design and a minor in African American Studies. Dino is the founder of Shorefront, an organization he pioneered in 1995. Within Shorefront, he has authored books, facilitated subject specific speaking engagements and exhibits, and consults on community based archiving, organizing, and programming. Throughout the last 20 years, Dino built a growing collection currently measuring over 500 linear feet, representing the local Black communities on Chicago’s suburban North Shore. The Shorefront Legacy Center houses it collections and library and serves as a space for research initiatives, programming activities and community engagement.

Moderator:

Christine Sneed is the author of three novels, most recently Please Be Advised: A Novel in Memos and Paris, He Said, and three short story collections, Portraits of a Few of the People I've Made Cry, The Virginity of Famous Men, and Direct Sunlight, which will be published in June 2023. She is the editor of the short fiction anthology Love in the Time of Time's Up, and has received the Grace Paley Prize for Short Fiction, the Chicago Public Library Foundation's 21st Century Award, the Chicago Writers Association Book of the Year Award, twice, the Society of Midland Authors Award, Ploughshares' Zacharis Award, an O. Henry Prize, among other honors. She has been a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize and was long-listed for the Frank O'Connor International Short Story Award. Her novel Little Known Facts was a New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice selection, and her stories and essays have appeared in The Best American Short Stories, O. Henry Prize Stories, New England Review, The Southern Review, Boulevard, Hong Kong Review, Story, New York Times, Chicago Tribune, San Francisco Chronicle, O Magazine, Electric Literature, and various other publications. www.christinesneed.com is her author website.
