According to Brittanica.com, the events on April 6, 1712, were a violent insurrection. Revolt, rebellion, uprising. Definitions matter, especially if you must take your fight for liberty and the pursuit of happiness into your own hands. Trump, termed the insurrection at our nation’s capital on January 6, 2021, “A Day of Love.”
“No lie can live forever.” M.L. King, Jr.
On the night of April 6, 1712, a violent rebellion (or a righteous act of self-affirming love and humanity) by enslaved Africans took place in lower Manhattan. Join us for a talk and a walk in commemoration of the bravery of these New Yorkers.
The events of the rebellion will be presented in detail and may trigger strong reactions. We will walk to a site to pour libations and pray for the souls of the rebels and those currently fighting for their freedom/liberty
Accessibility
The Streets are really narrow in lower Manhattan, and it will be twilight, so I would advise those differently able not to attend this walk if you are using a walker or motorized wheelchair.
Location Information
RSVP is required and capacity is limited. Meeting location, ending location, and directions will be provided via email before walk date.
