History of the Sakonnet People (Virtual Only)
2023-03-21 19:00 - 20:30 | Online Only
As we begin two years of research into the history of the Sakonnet people, what do we know so far? Scholars, including local historians, have written about the Sakonnets for generations. New research often builds on their work, but sometimes challenges it. Join LCHS Executive Director Marjory O’Toole for a presentation on the history of the Sakonnets, as we know it today, and an overview of our plans to learn more in the coming years.
