Mike Snyder will explore the interconnectivity of Morris County’s towns in relation to each other and the citizens who participated in enslavement.
The presenter will delve into the slave owners and the enslaved, who they were, how they lived, and how they were treated. It will also look at the rifts slavery caused in the community, and the debate about slavery within the press. The presenter will also explore how history is told, the marginalization of the enslaved, and the commemoration of slavery in the area.
This program is presented by Mike Snyder, who is a 2017 graduate of Rutgers University, in Newark, where he earned a Masters in history. His own graduate research was on the public slavery history of Morris County.
