Redfield Farm: A Novel of the Underground Railroad
Tuesday, August 24 at 7:00 pm
"Redfield Farm" explores the paradox between peoples' professed beliefs and their actions. The main characters are Quaker and live in a solidly Quaker community. Quakers are non-violent yet the actions of the two main characters will go to any lengths to help fugitive slaves escape. Quakers believe in equality, yet when a mixed-race child is born they turn their backs and are uncomfortable with the child.
