Sunday, August 27, 2023 Service: "Researching Slavery in Boston"
Speaker: Mimi Pichey
Acknowledgement is the first step toward reparative justice. Slavery was essential to the development of colonial New England. Boston churches, colleges, and historic houses are now exploring their connections to slavery.
