    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Lincoln Monument in Memory of Scottish-American Soldiers]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Funded by a prominent group of Scottish-Americans – organized by then-U.S. Consul in Edinburgh, Wallace Bruce, and including philanthropist Andrew Carnegie – this monument was dedicated in Edinburgh's Old Calton Cemetery on 21 August 1893. Ostensibly erected to commemorate the participation of six Scottish-American soldiers in the Civil War, and in defence of the Union cause, the monument's artistic focus prioritizes an emancipatory rather than a military narrative. Featuring a bronze sculpture of Abraham Lincoln atop a red marble plinth, the composition is notable for sculptor George E. Bissell's inclusion of a bronze figure of an African American man, his arms outstretched towards Lincoln, at the plinth's base and at the visitor's level.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[A major Union supply depot and recruitment centre for United States Colored Troops (USCT) during the Civil War, Camp Nelson was designated a National Monument under the Antiquities Act in 2018 -- 155 years after it was initially established. The site covers 380-acres in central Kentucky and is home to several memorial structures such as the Fee Memorial Church and the Memorial Obelisk to Refugees. Camp Nelson’s association with the USCT and the Black refugee families that gathered there transformed the military encampment into a site of freedom and hope for Black communities. It is currently managed by the National Park Service and celebrates its 160th anniversary between 2023-2026. ]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Due in part to interrupted cotton imports caused by the Civil War, the Lancashire Cotton Famine saw a depression of the textile industry in the area. In solidarity with the workers, the Union states sent a shipment of essential supplies – including 15,000 barrels of flour – to Lancashire on the relief ship George Griswold. One of the flour barrels was preserved as a monument and is currently on display at Touchstones Rochdale. The barrel is inscribed with a message commemorating the events.  ]]></dcterms:description>
