The Anti-Slavery Movement in
Black & White
Program at the Princeville Heritage Museum
The Princeville Heritage Museum in conjunction with
the Lillie M. Evans Library will be presenting the final program in our
Lincoln series entitled, the Anti-Slavery Movement in Black &
White by Jeanne Schultz Angel. This free program will be
held at the Museum on Tuesday, April 29th 6:30pm. The
state of Illinois played a prominent role during the anti-slavery
movement in the mid-19th Century. But were all Illinoisans who were
against slavery also supportive of the Underground Railroad, or even
racial equality? Understanding the differences between those who were
'anti-slavery' and those who were 'radical abolitionists' is important to
both understanding how the Underground Railroad was viewed in Illinois,
and also determining which of its sites are verifiable. Explore the
history behind the anti-slavery movement in Northern Illinois and examine
the criteria historians use to separate fact from fiction.
This program is provided through a grant from the IHC Road
Scholars Speakers Bureau. The Illinois Humanities Council (IHC) is
supported in part by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) and
the Illinois General Assembly (through the Illinois Arts Council, a state
agency), as well as by contributions from individuals, foundations, and
corporations. Any views, findings, conclusions, or recommendations
expressed by speakers, program participants, or audiences do not
necessarily reflect those of the NEH, the IHC, our partnering
organizations or our funders.
The exhibit will be on display at the Princeville
Heritage Museum from April 7, 2014 through May 9, 2014. Regular
hours at the Princeville Heritage Museum during this exhibit will be
Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays & Saturdays 10am-2pm; Tuesdays from
2pm-8pm; and Thursdays from 2pm-6pm. The exhibit is closed on
Sundays. There is no charge for admission. The Museum is
located 325 N Ostrom Avenue in Princeville, IL-15 minutes north of Peoria.
The 30,000 sq ft handicap-accessible facility features agriculture
antiques, area artifacts, genealogy research, and more. The Akron
Townhouse School, a one-room school, is located on the Museum
grounds. For more information and for booking class or group visits,
please call the Museum (309) 385-1916.
