SUMMARY:Abolition's Foot Soldiers: Female Anti-Slavery Societies in Antebellum Massachusetts (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:For at least the past three decades\, scholars have argued that slavery’s abolition would not have happened without interracial collaboration between politically-minded women. From 1830-1865\, an interracial and transnational group of women insisted that the struggles for women’s liberation and abolition were linked. They rooted their activism in their shared passion for religion\, writing\, reading\, and teaching. \nIn this talk\, Dr. Jaimie Crumley will show that the efforts of the anti-slavery women in Massachusetts demonstrate the distinctively feminist contours of antebellum abolitionism. Further\, she will assert that learning from the successes and failures of antebellum female anti-slavery societies can inform contemporary feminist organizing. \nTo register for this virtual program\, please use the library link provided below.

SUMMARY:RPL Winter Concert: The Softer Side of Celtic
