Local Author Talk with Susanna Graham-Pye
Thursday, June 25 at 4:00 PM
As both a work of historical, creative nonfiction and a guidebook, For the Unremembered uncovers and reflects on Cape Cod’s role in the institution of slavery.
Learn about the Cape’s involvement in the chattel slave trade and how colonists participated in and supported this inhumane system through various means.

This author talk will be held in Community Rooms AB.
Copies of Susanna’s book will be available for purchase and signing after the presentation.
