Murder in the VT Woods: a VHC Series with Jill Mudgett

Past event
Oct 18, 2019, 7 to 9 PM

Coming to the Highland Center for the Arts:
A Story About Race, Class and Gender in the 19th Century: A Vermont Humanities Council Series.
Historian Jill Mudgett tells the story of an indigenous man, the victim of murder, who came to Central Vermont from southern New England during the late-19th Century. Recreating community connections in a rural Vermont hill town, this story is about poverty, racism, disability, and gendered violence against women, but is also an account of indigenous movement and choice despite great obstacles.
This talk is free, open to the public, and accessible to those with disabilities.
