Colorizing Old Photographs with Dr. James Beeghley

trailer

Dr. James Beeghley is back. This time he's joining us to talk about the popular trend of colorizing old photographs. Have you ever wondered how that's done? Though AI apps can kinda do a good job at it, a true digital artist will spend hundreds of hours researching and colorizing an old photograph with layers in a photo editor like Photoshop or Gimp. No self-respecting graphic artist would use AI and be done with it. Dr. James came into the studio and demonstrated how it's done. 1st Lieutenants saw it as it was record and, even though there is no visual with this, there is still interesting information shared for those of you interested in doing it yourself.

S11 Ep 6Ask A Gettysburg Guide #86- Brigadier General John Gibbon with LBG Chris Army

LBG Chris Army is back to talk about Brigadier General John Gibbon of the II Corps, Army of the Potomac. From Gettysburg Daily: "John Gibbon was born in the Holmesburg section of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the fourth of ten children born to Dr. John Heysham Gibbon and Catharine Lardner Gibbon. When Gibbon was 11 years old the family moved near Charlotte, North Carolina, because Dr. Gibbon took a position as chief assayer at the U.S. Mint. John Gibbon graduated from the United States Military Academy in 1847 and was commissioned a brevet second lieutenant in the 3rd U.S. Artillery. He served in the Mexican-American War without seeing combat, attempted to keep the peace between Seminoles and settlers in south Florida. In 1855, Gibbon married Francis "Fannie" North Moale. They had four children: Frances Moale Gibbon, Catharine "Katy" Lardner Gibbon, John Gibbon, Jr. (who died as a toddler) and John S. Gibbon. Lieutenant John Gibbon taught artillery tactics at West Point where he wrote The Artillerist's Manual in 1859. The manual was used by both sides in the Civil War."

Was [insert information here] something that this person or that person would have known at the moment, or is it something he learned from someone else down the road?

Medicine, Science, and Making Race in Civil War America

trailer

**NOTE: This was recorded last Winter, during the old days when we recorded out of a shed with a failing solar power system. This interview went about ten minutes longer but a chunk of it had to be cut due to digital distortion that actually had nothing to do with the electrical issues. God bless Erik Dorr for saving us from that shed!*** This social and cultural history of Civil War medicine and science sheds important light on the question of why and how anti-Black racism survived the destruction of slavery. During the war, white Northerners promoted ideas about Black inferiority under the guise of medical and scientific authority. In particular, the Sanitary Commission and Army medical personnel conducted wartime research aimed at proving Black medical and biological inferiority. They not only subjected Black soldiers and refugees from slavery to substandard health care but also scrutinized them as objects of study. This mistreatment of Black soldiers and civilians extended after life to include dissection, dismemberment, and disposal of the Black war dead in unmarked or mass graves and medical waste pits. Simultaneously, white medical and scientific investigators enhanced their professional standing by establishing their authority on the science of racial difference and hierarchy. Drawing on archives of the U.S. Sanitary Commission, recollections of Civil War soldiers and medical workers, and testimonies from Black Americans, Leslie A. Schwalm exposes the racist ideas and practices that shaped wartime medicine and science. Painstakingly researched and accessibly written, this book helps readers understand the persistence of anti-Black racism and health disparities during and after the war. https://uncpress.org/book/9781469672694/medicine-science-and-making-race-in-civil-war-america/ Become a patron so that we never have to work out of a shed again!

However, if you appreciate the work we put into this and every show, please consider becoming a Patron. www.patreon.com/addressinggettysburg ** Every once in a while we like to step out of the Battle of Gettysburg and into another era of history. Since JFK visited Gettysburg on March 30, 1963, we figure it's "Gettysburg-enough" to explore the assassination of the man on November 22, 1963. Over the last 60 years, generations have doubted, questioned, hypothesized, theorized, speculated, conjectured, imagined, lied, guessed, concocted and just about everything else except believed that Lee Harvey Oswald, on his own merits, without help from a vast conspiracy of everyone else in the world, murdered our 35th President. Dr. Jennifer Murray and Addressing Gettysburg's Matt Callery explore what's provable and what requires an active imagination. Matt will present arguments for Oswald being the mastermind and the lone gunman in the assassination, while Jennifer will counter with conspiracy theories. Even though the live broadcast is over, we still WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU! What do you believe? Did the Warren Commission get it right? Did Mark Lane, Jim Garrison, et al, get it right? Is it a combination of the two? Tell us by calling into the show and leaving a voicemail at 717-420-1978. We will play it on the next AG Today when we recap this episode.

"Our Flag Was Still There" with Author Tom McMillan

trailer

Didn't think there was a Gettysburg connection to the Battle of Fort McHenry besides that of the fort's commender? Well, you'll be surprised when you find out just how connected Fort McHenry was to Gettysburg. Our Flag Was Still There details the improbable two-hundred-year journey of the original Star-Spangled Banner -- from Fort McHenry in 1814, when Francis Scott Key first saw it, to the Smithsonian in 2023 -- and the enduring family who defended, kept, hid, and ultimately donated the most famous flag in American history. Francis Scott Key saw the original Star-Spangled Banner flying over Baltimore's Fort McHenry on September 14, 1814, following a twenty-five-hour bombardment by the British Navy, inspiring him to write the words to our national anthem. Torn and tattered over the years, reduced in size to appease souvenir-hunters, stuffed away in a New York City vault for the last two decades of the nineteenth century, the flag's mere existence after two hundred years is an improbable story of dedication, perseverance, patriotism, angst, inner-family squabbles, and, yes, more than a little luck. For this unlikely feat, we have the Armistead family to thank -- led by Lieutenant Colonel George Armistead, commander of Fort McHenry, who took it home after the battle in clear defiance of U.S. Army regulations. It is only because of that quiet indiscretion that the flag survives to this day. Armistead's descendants kept and protected their family heirloom for ninety years. The flag's first photo was not taken until 1873, almost sixty years after Key saw it waving, and most Americans did not even know of its existence until Armistead's grandson loaned it to the Smithsonian in 1907. Tom McMillan tells a story as no one has before. Digging deep into the archives of Fort McHenry and the Smithsonian, accessing never-before-published letters and documents, and presenting rare photos from the private collections of Armistead descendants and other sources, McMillan follows the flag on an often-perilous journey through three centuries. Our Flag Was Still There provides new insight into an intriguing period of U.S. history, offering a "story behind the story" account of one of the country's most treasured relics.
