Publication Type: Individual Paper Abstract: The Uncrowned Queens Institute for Research and Education on Women, Inc. was founded in 1999 as a project to commemorate the centennial of the 1901 Pan American Exposition. The Institute’s co-founders, Drs. Barbara Seals Nevergold and Peggy Brooks-Bertram, have researched and documented the outstanding, yet little-known, role that African American women played in the history of the Pan American Exposition. The Uncrowned Queens Institute has taken as its mission: to reclaim, document, preserve and share the individual and collective histories of hundreds of African American women in the Western New York region. In January 2005, Drs. Nevergold and Brooks-Bertram initiated a year-long observance of the centennial of the Niagara Movement. Its founders, led by W.E.B. DuBois, held their first meeting in Buffalo at the home of Mary B. and William H. Talbert. Subsequent meetings were held at the Erie Beach Hotel in Fort Erie, Ontario. However, the importance of the contributions of Buffalo’s Black community, particularly women, in the Niagara Movement is rarely depicted as a continuous historical movement toward the civil rights of African Americans. Drs. Nevergold and Bertram will share their research on the advocacy role that the Black community, in particular women of the Phyllis Wheatley Club and Mary B. Talbert, played in the Pan American Exposition and propose that this work paved the way for the selection of Western New York as the site of the Niagara meeting four years later.
