This revolutionary pamphlet called on enslaved people to revolt against their enslavers and compelled white Americans to recognize the moral depravity of slavery.
On Wednesday, Dec.
15, from 7 to 8:30 p.m., Old North Church & Historic Site will host artist, educator, and activist L'Merchie Frazier and playwright Peter Snoad on Zoom for a discussion of the 19th-century Black abolitionist’s seminal text and how the history-changing pamphlet’s charges of greed, hypocrisy, and indifference remain relevant today.
This talk will be the second of a three-part series dedicated to Walker, his work, and his legacy, and reflects Old North’s commitment to telling stories of active citizenship and courageous, compassionate leadership throughout Boston’s history.
Prior participation in our speaker series is not required.
