SUMMARY:The Underground Railroad and the Legacy of an Abolitionist Family: Juneteenth Lunch & Learn
DESCRIPTION:Lunch & Learn // Special Juneteenth Edition\nAn Illustrated Talk by Education Programs Manager\, Jonathon Ahl\nJoin Rokeby Museum’s Education Programs Manager\, Jonathon Ahl\, for a virtual tour of Rokeby’s historic house and outbuildings. Once a refuge for freedom seekers on the Underground Railroad\, Rokeby Museum stands today as one of the best documented sites in the nation. Utilizing the most recent research and the museum’s abundant collection of artifacts\, together we’ll unpack the myths and misconceptions of the movement and arrive at a better understanding of the truth. Rokeby Museum presents a nationally significant Underground Railroad story tucked inside a quintessential Vermont experience. \nClick Here to Register and Purchase Lunch \nPlease note: Attending the program is free\, but if you’d like a vegetarian\nmeal\, lunch from Kismayo Kitchen will be offered at $15 a plate. \n\nAbout Rokeby Museum: \nFrom 1793 to 1961\, Rokeby was home to four generations of Robinsons — a remarkable family of Quakers\, farmers\, abolitionists\, artists\, and authors. Today\, the Robinson family’s home is a National Historic Landmark\, designated for its exceptional Underground Railroad history. Rokeby is among the best-documented Underground Railroad sites in the country\, one the National Park Service has described as: \n“unrivaled among known sites for its historical integrity and the poignancy of the stories it tells.” \nTelling those stories is at the center of the Museum’s mission\, which is to “connect visitors with the human experience of the Underground Railroad and with the lives of the Robinsons\, who lived on and farmed this land for nearly 200 years.” Guided by Rachel Gilpin and Rowland Thomas Robinson’s commitment to speaking truth to power\, today’s Rokeby is committed to serving as a center for the exploration and discussion of contemporary social justice issues.
