Making It American Lecture– Under the Same Roofs: Slavery at the Ten Broeck Mansion in the late Eighteenth Century

Sunday, Dec 7 2:00p

Recent excavations and research revealed outbuildings on Ten Broeck land likely used as summer kitchens and/or slave quarters, like those at Schuyler Mansion, Johnson Hall, and other prominent residences, particularly in the south. With a unique mix of archaeology and history these findings provide insight into the slave/master relationships shortly before abolition. They suggest we reconsider our modern concepts of slavery in the north at the end of the eighteenth century. Sponsored by PASt.
