Douglass Day Transcribe-a-thon: Colored Conventions Projects In-Person
Douglass Day is an annual program that marks the birth of Frederick Douglass, a leader in the American 19th century abolitionist movement. Join us in person on Friday, February 13, 2026 for a transcribe-a-thon to help create new & freely available resources for learning about Black history. This year we will transcribe content from the Colored Conventions Project, improving search, access, and discovery of these pages from history. Drop-in for a bit and join us for a day of love and collective action for Black history.
Birthday cake will be provided, laptops will not (but ask if you need one!). Registration not required, but appreciated.
