The Black Experience in New EnglandBy Liz Bulkley on Friday, June 23, 2006.This weekend, the University of New Hampshire is holding the first conference on the Black Experience in Northern New England. We'll talk with some of the participants about this region's history with race issues and slavery, and how that history affects African American culture here today. There were relatively few slaves in this part of the country before ownership was outlawed. However, there were people who made good livings working the slave trade. We'll look at the legacy of New Hampshire's role in that, and we'll explore other ways the past meets the present in the lives of New England's African Americans. Our guests are: James Horton, Professor of American Studies and History at George Washington University. You can read more about Professor Horton here. Reverend Arthur Hilson, pastor of the New Hope Baptist Church in Portsmouth. listen:

We'll look at why there's so much buzz about our team, if the soccer bug has caught on in the States...and how our country fits into a soccer landscape that is dominated by European culture and tradition. Laura's guests are Dave Wasser, Soccer Historian who maintains an online archive of soccer videos and who also runs the North American Soccer League Alumni Association and Seamus Malin, long time Soccer Analyst for ABC and ESPN Sports. listen:
