Description
Join a Park Ranger for a special guided tour or talk on a range of topics, from the American Revolution to Boston's abolitionist history.
During the 1800's, Beacon Hill served as a center in the work to abolish slavery, the fight for equal education, & the struggle for women’s rights. Black & White women played a significant role in these & other efforts, having aspirational visions of a just & equitable world. Working from their homes & in community spaces, they used tools at their disposal to define their own sphere of action and influence. Join us as we explore stories of the inspiring women who lived and made a difference in this community.
Tour begins at 4:30pm in front of the Massachusetts State House.
