The Greater Boston Wheaton Club invites you to Black Voices: Writers for a 19th Century Revolution Private Walking Tour.

On this tour, you will discover stories of Boston’s Black writers who were laser-focused on the great topic of the era – slavery. Learn about the mark Black thinkers and writers made on literary and political history: David Walker and his sentinel work, Appeal to the Colored Citizens of the World; novelist, playwright and editor Pauline Elizabeth Hopkins; Dorothy West and her biting satire on racial tensions, and many others. Explore where they worked, raised their families, fought injustice and wrote.
