Book/Edited Volumes In Progress: 
Unforgettable Sacrifice African American Memory of the Civil War
This in-progress second book manuscript focuses on how African Americans remembered and commemorated the American Civil War and its legacy. Contributing to a large body of scholarship, it seeks to recognize the underappreciated role of diversity within the African American community in shaping memory. African Americans experienced the war as enslaved and free, but also as soldier, contraband, and/or civilian in both the United States and the Confederate States of America. As a result, geographic place, status before war, gender, and wartime experience produced a rich tapestry of collective memories that are not neatly encapsulated within the traditional scholarly categories of Emancipationist, Reconciliationist, or even the Won Cause. Rather the case studies presented in this volume seek to demonstrate the origins, diversity, and evolution of Civil War memory among everyday African Americans. Unforgettable Sacrifice will argue that African Americans, whether nationally, regionally, and/or locally, sought a usable past that honored the service and sacrifice of veterans, the diverse wartime civilian experiences, and the destruction of slavery to advance communal notions of patriotism, democracy, and their full inclusion as American citizens.
