Slavery, Emancipation, and Race in New England

A six-week course for Spring 2019, with locations in Providence and Westerly.

“Slavery, Emancipation, and Race in New England” is a six-week history course taught by Dr. Joanne Pope Melish through the Center for Reconciliation. Class sessions are held once a week and last 90 minutes. Each session consists of a brief lecture, followed by in-class examination and interpretative discussion of a short primary source document.

Students are encouraged to read the provided documents in advance of each class, but there are no other mandatory assignments.
