Today I met with Ms. Umfleet from the NC Department of Natural and Cultural Resources. Her job mostly entails working with different museums around the state to commemorate events important to NC history. She told me how she enjoys playing a Jeopardy like game with people she meets from different places from NC. She specializes in the Wilmington Massacre which is getting more national attention since the Black Lives Matter movement. She emphasized the need for the state to teach young people about these events in order to raise awareness and empathy. She also told me about how out of college she had a hard time finding a job because of how competitive the history job sector is. The most important advice I got from Ms. Umfleet was that you work in history because you love it not because it pays well.
