This constantly evolving talk examines the experience of African Americans along the Erie Canal Corridor, with a particular focus on the struggle for abolition. While parts of this story are unpleasant, slavery, racism, and resistance are critical to understanding our society today.

The presentation will be led by Derrick Pratt, Director of Education and Public Programming with the Erie Canal Museum of Syracuse
