We at Urbanist Media⁠ (and the Urban Roots podcast⁠) are excited to have, yet again, celebrated Juneteenth with Cincinnati Public Radio.

This year, we produced brand new ⁠Juneteenth Cincinnati Shorts⁠: weekly, 90-second tributes to people and places important to Cincinnati Black history and African American history. This first one is all about Robert S. Duncanson and his connection to the ⁠Taft Museum of Art⁠⁠!

Born in 1821, Robert S. Duncanson became a nationally celebrated 19th-century African American landscape artist who built his career in the Cincinnati area. In 1850, Duncanson murals were commissioned by Nicholas Longworth (a local white abolitionist and famous landowner) for his home, which is now the ⁠Taft Museum of Art⁠ building. You can visit the museum to see Duncanson’s murals today, and, if you find yourself in Washington, D.C., you can see his landscape paintings on display at the ⁠Smithsonian American Art Museum⁠.

Listen to the entire archive (2023-2025) on Cincinnati Public Radio's website: https://cinradio.org/juneteenth-special-programming-from-urbanist-media/

Juneteenth Cincinnati Shorts is brought to you by Urbanist Media’s Urban Roots podcast team: Deqah Hussein-Wetzel (Executive Producer / Host & Narrator), Tania Mohammad (Producer / Story Editor), Vanessa Maria Quirk (Story Editor), and Connor Lynch (Audio Editor / Mixer).
