Don't miss an evening with historian, writer and lecturer Erica Armstrong Dunbar, who will discuss researching and documenting African American history in her award-winning book Never Caught: The Washingtons’ Relentless Pursuit of their Runaway Slave, Ona Judge.
Ona Judge is also the subject of two story quilts, Ona Judge Escapes and Ona Judge and Her Family, featured in Stephen Towns: Declaration & Resistance. Artist Stephen Towns and Kilolo Luckett, guest curator of the exhibition, will attend Dunbar’s presentation and contribute to the discussion.
Following the program, Dunbar will be available to autograph books. Dunbar’s Never Caught and the young readers’ edition can be purchased in-person or online at The Westmoreland’s Museum Shop by clicking here.
