The Changing Faces of Brookland

Last Date:


2012 marks both the Sesquicentennial Anniversary of the District of Columbia Compensated Emancipation Act of 1862 and the 125th anniversary of the community of Brookland, the Catholic University of America's home and neighborhood.  In celebration of both, John Feeley and Rosie Dempsey will give a presentation of images from Brookland's past from their research for their recently published book, Brookland.
