Sunday, May 7, from 12-4 p.m.
Being in CA, we often think that slavery didn’t happen here, but after an enlightening and thought-provoking afternoon with Dr. Kevin Waite @kevinwaite yesterday discussing his book West of Slavery: The Southern Dream of a Transcontinental Empire all in attendance learned the true story.
