- Monday, 23 November, 6:00PM : Join us for an author talk with Sally G. McMillen of Davidson College. She is speaking on her new book, Lucy Stone: An Unapologetic Life, which addresses Stone's omission from the pantheon of women suffragists of the 19th century. This talk is open to the public for a fee of $10 (no charge for MHS Fellows or Members). Registration is required. 

- Tuesday, 24 November, 5:15PM : Mark Herlihy of Endicott College presents "'A barbarous practice that would not be permitted in other civilized countries': The Evolution and Enduring Presence of the African Dodger Game at Boston-Area Amusement Venues," a seminar talk that is part of the Immigration and Urban History series. Jeff Melnick of UMass - Boston provides comment. Seminars are free and open to the public; RSVP required. Subscribe to receive advance copies of the seminar papers.
