Many people think of the White House as a symbol of democracy, but it also
embodies America’s complicated past and the paradoxical relationship between
slavery and freedom in the nation’s capital. Dr. Lonnie G. Bunch III will share
the stories of the enslaved and free African Americans who built, lived, and
worked at the White House, as well as the surrounding homes on Lafayette Park.
