Co-sponsored by the Boston African American National Historic Site and the College of Arts & Sciences: a view of Garrison and the American Abolition Movement, including music that inspired the anti-slavery struggle, presented by National Park Service Ranger Horace Seldon and Prof. Larry Watson, with Berklee College of Music students. You'll be reminded of the historic importance of this area, walking your imagination to Milk Street; around the corner, where Garrison met Paul and Snowdenn, two ministers of the black North Slope community; and down the street to Park Street Church, where Garrison gave first speech.
