The Long Legacy: The Cost and Continuance of Indigenous Resistance

May 28 @ 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm

Forced displacement, enslavement, land seizures and dispossession, a global diaspora and suppression of languages – the war that bore the name of Metacom, or Philip, left a long and devastating trail of destruction. Join this important panel discussion, live at the Boston Public Library and livestreamed, in asking: what is due to the people of the Eastern Woodlands? How do we reckon with this bloody history and its legacy today? The final event in our Metacom’s Resistance series.

Part of the Metacom’s Resistance: Retelling King Philip’s War collection.

Boston Public Library-Central and also Online.
