Thinking Allowed with: C. S. Manegold, in the Community Room

Tuesday, Jan. 19, 7:30 p.m.

The author’s “Ten Hills Farm: The Forgotten History of Slavery in the North” is the saga of five generations of slave owners in colonial New England, prominent dynasties tied to the Native American and Atlantic slave trades. The author exposes how the fortunes of these families and the fate of the 600-acre estate were bound to the tragic legacy of slavery. Manegold begins in the early 17th century and follows the history through to the present, bringing the story of slavery in the North full circle.
