Tuesday, October 4 at 6:30 PM: Believed to have been lost for almost two centuries, newly discovered court records reveal activist Sojourner Truth’s successful legal battle to liberate her son from slavery. Join the conversation in person or online as Dr. Nell Irvin Painter (Edwards Professor of American History, Emerita, Princeton University), Paul O’Neill, Esq. (Commissioner of Jurors, Ulster County), and Thomas J. Ruller (New York State Archivist) discuss the historic court case.
