Library presents Black Heritage Trail

This presentation is Monday from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. and will cover multiple stops along the Black Heritage Trail, including the 54th Massachusetts Regiment, which was the first black regiment in the north to fight in the Civil War. Centered on the north slope of Beacon Hill, the free African American community of 19th century Boston led the city and the nation in the fight against slavery and injustice. Together with their white allies, they lead in the Abolition Movement, the Underground Railroad, the Civil War, and the early struggle for equal rights and education.
