SUMMARY:Lunchbox Learning
DESCRIPTION:Backcountry Resistance: South Carolina’s Militia and the Fight for American Independence\n  \nPresented by Carl P. Borick\n  \nIn Backcountry Resistance\, Carl P. Borick delivers a groundbreaking account of the citizen militia that defied British forces in South Carolina’s volatile Backcountry during the pivotal Southern campaign of the Revolutionary War. When Charleston fell in May of 1780 and the Continental Army retreated\, many assumed the Patriot cause in the South had collapsed. In the state’s rugged interior\, though\, partisan militias waged a brutal insurgency that challenged British control and changed the course of the war. \nFocusing on rank-and-file militiamen\, Borick explores how these ordinary men were recruited\, armed\, fed\, and motivated. Drawing on underused pension records and state claims\, he reconstructs their everyday realities and their battlefield experiences. He also examines the war’s devastating effects on civilians\, including enslaved people and women\, who played crucial roles in the struggle. \nRichly detailed and grounded in the human experience of warfare\, Backcountry Resistance offers the most comprehensive portrait to date of South Carolina’s militia during the decisive years of the American War of Independence. \nCarl P. Borick is the Director of the Charleston Museum in Charleston\, SC. He received a Bachelor of Science in Accounting from the University of Delaware and a MA in History from the University of Alabama. His previous publications include: A Gallant Defense: The Siege of Charleston\, 1780; Relieve Us of this Burthen: American Prisoners of War in the Revolutionary South\, 1780-1782; and The Charleston Museum: America’s First Museum. \n  \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLunchbox Learning is generously sponsored by:

SUMMARY:Foundations of a Revolution: South Carolina\, 1775-1777
DESCRIPTION:The Upcountry History Museum is proud to be the Upstate’s only venue for the display of the South Carolina Department of Archives and History (SCDAH) exhibit\, Foundations of a Revolution: South Carolina\, 1775-1777\, on Thursday\, April 23\, 2026\, from 1:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. \nOn display will be three of the state’s original founding documents from the American Revolution. They are the 1775 Articles of Association for the District East of the Wateree\, the South Carolina Constitution of 1776\, and the 1777 Treaty of DeWitt’s Corner.\nThese documents are part of the vast collection documenting the history of South Carolina held by the SCDAH and are seldom placed on public display.\nDr. W. Eric Emerson\, SCDAH Agency Director\, State Historic Preservation Officer\, and State Archivist\, remarked that “the S.C. Department of Archives and History has a long tradition of making South Carolina’s historic records available to the public. The 250th anniversary of our nation’s founding is an excellent time to educate South Carolinians about their state’s crucial role in the American Revolution by bringing key foundational documents to communities throughout the state.” \nExhibit curator\, D. Andrew Johnson\, PhD\, noted that “since the South Carolina Department of Archives and History holds many important documents from America’s Founding Era\, we thought this would be an excellent time to have some of them on public display. We want this exhibit to add to the broader conversation the public is having about the origins of our country.” \nIn addition to the display\, Archives staff will provide a presentation about the documents at 6:30 p.m. in the Museum’s theater. They will discuss each document’s influence and place them in the context of their production. \nRegular admission for full Museum access will be charged from 10:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. \n\nAdmission is FREE from 5:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. and limited to viewing the Founding Documents. \n

SUMMARY:Lunchbox Learning
DESCRIPTION:The Super Highway in Upstate South Carolina \nPresented by William “Lynn” Duncan & Scott Winthrow\nCompleted in 1946\, U.S. Highway 29 was a groundbreaking development for the Upstate region of South Carolina\, linking Greenville and Spartanburg with what was then considered a state-of-the-art roadway. The highway cuts a winding path through Piedmont\, bringing with it not only improved transportation but also significant economic and social change. Over time\, the corridor became home to thriving businesses\, shaping a new landscape and helping define the modern identity of the region. Along this route\, figures like J. Harley Bonds left lasting marks through his leadership in education and desegregation efforts. In this presentation\, authors William “Lynn” Duncan and Scott Withrow delve into the rich history of this transformative highway\, highlighting the people\, places\, and stories that have traveled its path over the decades. \nWilliam “Lynn” Duncan grew up in Travelers Rest\, South Carolina\, and spent forty-one years as an educator with the Greenville County School District. A passionate historian\, he is a member of the Circus Historical Society and teaches courses on circus history through the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at Furman University. He is the editor of ten oral history books\, including South Carolina Remembers World War II (1995)\, and brings a deep love of regional history to his work. \nScott Withrow\, a native of Western North Carolina\, is a retired educator and park ranger. He continues to pursue his interests in hiking\, gardening\, photography\, drawing\, writing\, and travel. Active in local history\, he volunteers with the Greer Heritage Museum and teaches history courses through OLLI at Furman University. With a shared passion for uncovering the stories of the Upstate\, Withrow and Duncan bring history to life through engaging storytelling and meticulous research. \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLunchbox Learning is generously sponsored by:

SUMMARY:Sitting for Justice - The Montgomery Bus Boycott
DESCRIPTION:Sitting for Justice – The Montgomery Bus Boycott: Drawings by Harvey Dinnerstein and Burton Silverman\nFebruary 14\, 2026 – May 31\, 2026 \n  \nIn March of 1956\, two young artists\, Harvey Dinnerstein and Burt Silverman\, embarked on a journey to record history in the making. Together\, they traveled from New York City to Montgomery\, Alabama\, to document\, through their drawings\, ordinary people engaged in a mighty endeavor\, a demonstration of civil disobedience which came to be known as the\nMontgomery Bus Boycott. \nWhat began as a local phenomenon received widespread national and international attention\, serving as a catalyst for the Civil Rights Movement. The Boycott\, according to the artists\, was “a struggle that went beyond specific issues of segregation in buses\, to address larger concerns of inequality across the nation.” \nDuring their time in Montgomery\, Dinnerstein and Silverman created more than 90 drawings from courtroom scenes to church meetings to portraits of those who chose\, according to the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.\, to “walk in dignity rather than ride in humiliation.” The Upcountry History Museum\, in partnership with the Delaware Art Museum\, will present a selection of 30 of these rarely exhibited or published sketches\, in an exhibition commemorating the 70th Anniversary of the Montgomery Bus Boycott. \nThe exhibition traces the artists observations of this event in American history that began with the arrest of Rosa Parks on charges of disorderly conduct on Dec. 1\, 1955\, when she refused to give up her seat on a public bus to a white man. As a result\, the African American community was galvanized to action and the Montgomery Improvement Association was formed\, with the 26-year-old Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King\, Jr.\, as president. The Association filed a suit in federal court on behalf of those discriminated against by the bus service. In 1956\, the federal court ruled in favor of the Association and declared segregated bus service unconstitutional. After an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court\, the boycott finally ended on December 20\, 1956\, when the high court ordered Montgomery to integrate its bus system. \nDinnerstein and Silverman drew Montgomery’s African American citizens walking and carpooling\, listening to speeches by community leaders and civil rights activists\, and participating in the trial that challenged the segregation of public transportation. The exhibition features their drawings\, ranging from expressive portraits to impassioned courtroom drama\, and captures the spectrum of actions and emotions that marked the boycott as a turning point in the struggle for civil rights. \n  \nSupport provided by \n    \n
