Accolades for Dr. Stewart’s Public History Work:

“Whitney… was so giving and open to conversation and discussions on the difficult subject of slavery. I’m rejuvenated in my commitment to do my part to make this world a more just place for all. Thank you again for the fantastic experience.”

“Thanks so much for sharing your insights on both the inhumanity as shown at the Whitney Plantation tour, and how the issues permeate and drive today's polarization and continued inequality. I especially appreciated your thoughts on the efforts to create a sense of home, even in the face of such adverse conditions. It was such a unique privilege to have a wide-ranging, intellectual discussion.”
