Hi everyone, we’re currently experiencing issues with the Library of Congress website. Our team is working to resolve these technical difficulties, and we’ll be back up and ready to transcribe soon. Thank you for your patience! #DouglassDay2025
Happy Douglass Day! Students at Howard are deep into transcribing and enjoying Douglass Day Cupcakes from #sweetlobby #HowardUniversity #HowardEnglishDepartment #HowardUniversityLibraries @douglassday.bsky.social
HOW cool!
Due to the high volume of participants this Douglass Day, the Library of Congress website is experiencing issues. To mitigate this, please avoid using the “Jump to” transcription link and instead navigate directly through your web browser. Thank you for your patience! #DouglassDay2025
Swarthmore is ready to celebrate #DouglassDay with a packed house! We have cupcakes from a local Black-owned bakery, Kia’s, and our Makerspace laser cut stencils to make the trading cards into cookie cakes! @douglassday.bsky.social
Happy Birthday, Fredrick Douglass! #DouglassDay Seton Hall is ready to transcribe and chat about transcription history!
@digblk.bsky.social please mute the mic on the Douglass Day live stream on one end! There is a big echo.
