We are proud to partner with the Robbins House for a special edition of History at Home and in an ongoing and mutual effort to raise awareness of Concord’s African, African American, and antislavery history from the 17th through the 19th centuries. As our nation is once again torn asunder by issues of race, we hope our joint programming will inspire conversation, expand understanding, and contribute to a better and more equitable society.
