SUMMARY:Boston’s Revolutionary Martyrs
DESCRIPTION:The Framingham History Center hosts:\nBoston’s Revolutionary War Martyrs: Revolution Speaker Series\nFriday, March 4, 2022\n7PM\nVillage Hall on the Common, 2 Oak St, Framingham\nThe Boston Massacre is one of the most famous events in American history, but many details about the episode remain mysterious. Was it really the first fatal violence of the Revolution? What do we know about the most famous victim, Crispus Attucks? How many victims ultimately died from the shooting? All the soldiers and all the people shot were male, but what role did women play in the event? How many criminal trials followed, and what determined their outcome? Was the famous Massacre engraving really made by Paul Revere? How did Revolutionary leaders like Dr. Joseph Warren keep the memory of the Massacre alive? And how did the idea of martyrdom shape the cause of American liberty? Why and when did the Massacre orations cease to occur?\nJoin authors J.L. Bell and Christian Di Spigna along with historian Katie Turner Getty, as they discuss these questions and explore how that “Bloody Massacre perpetrated in King Street…” became an indelible part of our national memory.\nPresented by the Dr. Joseph Warren Foundation, National Society of the Sons of the American Revolution, and Massachusetts Freemasons.\nTickets: $15 (purchase below – make sure to click “I’m not a robot” and the green REGISTER button)\n\n
