Check out a book discussion with Tom Weiner, co-author of In Defiance: 20 Abolitionists You Were Never Taught in School. The event will focus on the United States’ first public anti-slavery protest, which was inspired by the power of a document of resistance in Historic Germantown in 1688.
Go deep into America’s abolitionist history and its timeliness today. The book chronicles 20 unheralded stories of those who fought bravely to end enslavement. The conversation is a follow-up to the 52 Firsts Firstival last month, celebrating the first protest against slavery in America.
