This year's event will feature a talk given by Marcus Rediker on his new book, Freedom Ship: The Uncharted History of Escaping Slavery by Sea. Rediker is a distinguished professor of Atlantic History at the University of Pittsburgh. His already-acclaimed work, published earlier this year, documents 'hidden waterfront networks and battle zones within the fight against slavery.'

Attendance is free for all members, but pre-registration is required.
