Event

Oppression of the Oppressed is presented by Robin Caudell, award-winning journalist and videographer and staff writer at the Press Republican. For the past seven years, Robin Caudell ‘s back-burner book simmered about abolitionist martyr John Brown's memory and legacy in the Adirondacks. Placing him in the context of the Underground Railroad in the Borderlands, this presentation examines oppression of the oppressed and the adoption, captivity, and slavery practices of the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) and Western Abenaki before, during, and after European contact. This project is made possible with funds from the Statewide Community Regrants program, a regrant program of the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature and administered by the Adirondack Lakes Center for the Arts.
