Go Michigan!

No, not the university. I am talking about us, the state of Michigan. Did you know we played a huge role in helping people escape slavery? According to Professor Veta Tucker, “the Michigan network was so successful that their resistance was often cited  in Congress as the debate raged for passing a new Fugitive Slave law.” Our state was the example! Meet the people and places that made up the Underground Railroad and the Abolitionist Army on Tuesday, February 9 at 7:00 pm.

Got your own research project in mind? Stop by Level 4 of the Main Library at 6:30 pm to take a brief tour of the Grand Rapids History and Special Collections Department. We’ve got the resources and the friendly assistance you need to get started!

And, be sure not to miss our fifth annual Taste of Soul Sunday on February 21! We’ve got more history presentations, including the History of Black Boxers in Michigan and Lessons from the Jim Crow Museum.
