Join Schuyler Mansion and Johnson Hall New York State Historic Sites for a compelling exploration of women in Revolutionary New York. In the spring of 1776, a dramatic arrest and an uneasy imprisonment placed two prominent women on opposite sides of the conflict and at the heart of a growing political storm. Through two engaging talks, discover how status, loyalty, family ties, and personal conviction shaped their choices during the early days of the Revolution, and consider how their actions may have carried consequences far beyond what appears in the traditional historical record.
