From fiery riots and military strategy to the voices of Indigenous and enslaved peoples, this lecture reveals the pivotal moments and untold stories that shaped the fight for independence. This New York State History Month lecture connects with our new exhibit, Revolutionary New York, which explores how the ideals of liberty, equality, and justice have continued to shape and be shaped by New York’s history.
This program is presented in collaboration with the New York State Museum, the New York State Archives Partnership Trust, and donations in Stefan Bielinski’s honor. Stefan Bielinski (1946-2024) was a historian at the New York State Museum for 43 years devoting his life’s work to the Colonial Albany Social History Project.
