African-Americans in Antebellum
Boston
We
can now link these names with almost 500 articles on voluntary
associations and civic engagement that have been digitized from
the pages of the abolitionist newspaper The Liberator
from the years 1831 and 1855. As you will see our research has
expanded far beyond our original expectations. We will attempt
to demonstrate our step-by-step approach including the challenges
as a study in student historiography.
