Sunday, January 30, 6-7pm, this on-line event requires advance registration

There have always been Ohioans who have worked for the liberty and equality of all. Before the Civil War, when the nation was fractured by bitter partisan politics, Ohio natives of many backgrounds worked to bring back the best ideals of the American Revolution.

Inspired by the 1787 Ordinance, Ohioans were able to overturn unjust legislation that had stolen those promised rights. Working together, they expanded citizenship rights at a time when many states were turning away from the old ideals of our nation’s founding.

Dr. Anna-Lisa Cox will speak on this little-known movement and how it can inspire us today.

Registration for this event will be free if you are a member of the Ohio History Connection and will require a $5.00 payment if you are not a member.
