Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

It was researched and written by Dr. Vibert Cambridge of the Athens, Ohio, Mt. Zion Baptist Church Preservation Society History Committee and Nigel Cambridge of the City University of New York.
The exhibit highlights digitized materials in Ohio University’s Robert E. and Jean R. Mahn Center for Archives and Special Collections to deepen the telling of the larger story of the Black experience at Ohio University.
