A Question of Right: Seizing Freedom and the War of 1812
While the US was occupied with the War of 1812, many enslaved Black Marylanders seized the opportunity to seek their freedom. Dr. Kelly will discuss his archival research to tell key stories spanning the U.S., Canada, the Caribbean, and parts of the Russian Empire.
