This fall, grab your favorite lunch at noon and tune in to virtual conversations with the Prince George’s County Office of Human Rights and the Prince George’s County Memorial Library System on topics from how racism is making us sick to human trafficking awareness to increasing equity and opportunity in the sciences. Let’s learn together!
Lunch and Learn returns with special guest Ben Egerman in conversation with the Prince George's County Office of Human Rights and the Prince George's County Memorial Library System.
Ben Egerman (he/him) is a public librarian and researcher living in Baltimore. His work with Preservation Maryland on the Maryland LGBTQ Historic Context Study yielded a preliminary list of over 300 sites related to LGBTQ+ history in the state and an interactive map displaying them, and has been recognized by the American Historical Association’s Committee on LGBT History, who awarded the project the Allan Berube Prize for community history in early 2024. He has worked with a fellow librarian and two community elders to bring various stories from Maryland’s LGBTQ+ past to audiences in libraries, universities, and community groups across the state. He aims for his work to lie at the intersection of community building, advocacy, and public history.
