IN PERSON READINGLeaders & Liberators: Harriet Tubman and her Cape May Connections
Monday, September 30, at 7 pm
A dramatic reading of an original script, Leaders and Liberators portrays an imagined meeting on July 4, 1872 in Cape May, New Jersey between Harriet Tubman and two abolitionist allies from Columbia, Lancaster County Pennsylvania, the Rev. Stephen Smith and William Whipper. These three influential leaders of the Underground Railroad Movement were courageous conductors and agents who led hundreds to freedom through the anti-slavery network of the Underground Railroad, from the 1830s through the 1850s.
