Curators discuss online events, forging relationships

When Rachel Ramirez goes to work as a curator at the Wilmette Historical Museum, she sits alone in her office taking calls and sending emails. She’s excited to be back with her co-workers ever since the museum opened its doors up for visitors in April, they’ve been working in staggered shifts. “You kind of walk around by yourself, and it’s echoing and empty,” Ramirez said. Because the museum is currently open by appointment only, Ramirez said it’s been harder to connect with community members, which is her favorite part of her job. The museum gets most of its artifacts from resident donations, and Ramirez said she loved talking to people who walk in, hearing their stories and seeing photos from their ancestors.

A Day Like Any Other

The only time I saw the Rev. Martin Luther King up close was on July 25, 1965. I was 14 years old. My parents took me and my brothers and sister to listen to him speak on the Winnetka Village Green. Winnetka then had been for years and would continue to be the wealthiest or second-wealthiest city in the country, trading off with Scarsdale. I remember seeing Dr. King from the side his right side from about 60 feet away, then worming my way up until I was about 20 feet away from him. I don’t remember a word he said that day, but I can see him still, one Black man illuminating a crowd of white people about equal housing and civil rights and our country’s promises.
