Long mired in myth and misconception, the real history of Lucretia Thomas Brown and Joseph Brown is even more fascinating than the legends. Over the last few years, many individuals and organizations in town have uncovered new and exciting threads in the couple's lives. Together, they weave a story of creativity, entrepreneurship, strength, community, and resilience that reflects the characteristics of Marblehead itself.
Presented by Lauren McCormack, Executive Director of the Marblehead Museum, and Robin Taylor, writer and member of the Marblehead Racial Justice Team, for a Zoom discussion. Moderated by Selectman Jackie Belf-Becker.
