Today at the Enfield Shaker Museum in partnership with the Enfield NH Public Library.

Join us at the Enfield Shaker Museum on Friday, June 12 at 6pm for this talk presented by NH Humanities as part of the US@250 programming!

Glenn Knoblock examines the history of African-American soldiers' service during the war, including how and why they enlisted, their interaction with white soldiers, service on the battlefields, how they were perceived by the enemy and the officers under whom they served, and their treatment after the war.

This event is made possible by New Hampshire Humanities, in partnership with NHPBS, with additional support provided by Cogswell Benevolent Trust. By the People: Conversations Beyond 250 is a series of community-driven programs created by humanities councils in collaboration with local partners. The initiative was developed by the Federation of State Humanities Councils and the Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage.

Both free African Americans and those that were enslaved played key roles in manning state militias and Continental Army units. Their service to the colonies was crucial in a seven year conflict when their own personal liberty was not guaranteed.
