Cincinnati Enquirer history columnist Jeff Suess will present on the early settlement of Cincinnati. The pivotal moments in the history of the Queen City follow along from the indigenous mound builders to the development of the first American city after the Revolutionary War. You’ll hear about Daniel Boone and George Rogers Clark, the Symmes Purchase, Fort Washington, and the blossoming of a western river town into a meat packing Porkopolis and one of the most influential cities of the mid-nineteenth century.
Daniel Boone
The timeline is multifaceted, exploring politics and race, the arts and pop culture, while also unveiling Cincinnati’s role in the Underground Railroad, the spread of Reform Judaism, and the development of the polio vaccine.
Cincinnati in the 1800’s
The people of Cincinnati have an insatiable curiosity about their history. More so, it seems, than many other cities. Maybe that’s because we feel Cincinnati is underrated, overlooked by the rest of the nation, and we seek reassurance. Jeff Suess will be speaking from 7:30-8:30 PM.

Cincinnati Connected Communities
Cincinnati “Connected Communities” explained:
1. Information describing the essential elements of “Connected Communities,” which is a zoning reform based on principles collectively known as “upzoning.” Such reforms have been introduced in numerous cities across the country, heavily influenced by ideology and partisanship.
2. Description of the process used by Cincinnati in enacting Connected Communities which has generated strong criticisms across the city, as deficient and illegitimate, because of its failure to address affordable housing as well as its serious lack of honest community engagement.
3. Current efforts by a citizens’ coalition to repeal Connected Communities.
Why is Connected Communities important for you to learn about? Because it is eerily similar to EmpowerU Classes where we have learned about “The Great Reset”. This Connected Communities is coming to your Town, Village or City. Make sure to join us for this. Todd Zinser will be speaking from 7:05-7:25 PM.
