Why Do We Still Learn about Anne Hutchinson?
Feminist? Rebel? Victim? Visionary? This puritan woman who was banished from the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1638 is one of the few puritans that Americans learn about in school. Who was she to her peers in Boston? Who is she to us today? Come and help answer these questions in this interactive session.
