Lecture: The Life of William J. Brown and Race in 19th Century RI
William J. Brown was an African-American civic leader who may have authored the most thoughtful narrative by a free man of color in the 19th Century. Mr. Brown uses his autobiography to tell how his family came to America on a slave ship owned by Moses and John Brown and then touches on the entire sweep of 19th-Century RI history. Linden Place will host a lecture by historian Ray Rickman who uses the book to talk about culture, class, and race during an 80-year span of Rhode Island life.
