Wednesday, February 15 from 7-8 p.m. For at least the past three decades, scholars have argued that slavery’s abolition would not have happened without interracial collaboration between politically minded women. From 1830-1865, an interracial and transnational group of women insisted that the struggles for women’s liberation and abolition were linked. In this talk, Dr. Jaimie Crumley will show that the efforts of the anti-slavery women in Massachusetts demonstrate the distinctively feminist contours of antebellum abolitionism.
