SUMMARY:Twelve Years a Widow: Finding the Footsteps of Anne Hampton Northup
DESCRIPTION:Anyone who has done historical research knows the difficulties in tracking down the stories of women\, particularly working-class women\, and especially women of color.

But who was Anne\, and how did she manage as a single woman\, bringing up three children\, for twelve years until her husband’s return? \nJoin Yale historian and Middlebury College teacher\, Connor Williams\, as he sheds some light on the story of Anne\, not only about her life\, but also about the challenges of uncovering that story. \nRegister HERE
