- **Event Name**: Acclaimed Historian Gregory O’Malley, “The Escapes of David George"
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 09 Feb, 2026 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: One of six inhabitants of the thirteen original colonies was enslaved. Historian Gregory O’Malley reveals a remarkable, untold experience of the American revolutionary period: a Black man’s decades-long quest for the freedom espoused by our Founders, but denied him and other enslaved people. Piecing together archival records and David George’s own brief account of his life—the earliest written testimony by a fugitive enslaved person in North America—O’Malley presents a unique perspective on our nation’s origins, principles, and contradictions.
