Discovering African American Stories at Historic New England

Wednesday, May 22, 6:00 - 7:30 p.m.
Otis House, 141 Cambridge Street, Boston, Mass.

Free to Historic New England members, $5 nonmembers

The lives of African Americans have long been hidden in histories of the northern United States. However, the labor and contributions of African Americans, enslaved and free, are a part of many Historic New England sites. Join museum historian Jennifer Pustz as she explores the African American experience across New England from the eighteenth to the early twentieth centuries through the lens of our historic properties. Light refreshments to follow the lecture.

Co-sponsored with the Boston African American National Historic Site.
