Special guest speakers from the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation, alongside local Author and Historian, Benjamin Shallop, will discuss Salem’s role in and the lasting impact of the Pequot War (1636-1638) ahead of the First Muster commemoration on April 11th.

This event supports ongoing efforts of the City of Salem, the Massachusett Tribe, and The House of the Seven Gables to foster reciprocal and ongoing relationships with Northeast Woodlands tribes, confront legacies of violence and colonialism, and reflect on how we can better understand and commemorate events like the First Muster.

The evening will open with a land acknowledgement and remarks from Visitor Services Manager, Tanya Rose Lane, who will also serve as moderator. Our panel will feature four distinguished speakers, Benjamin Shallop, Author of The Founding of Salem: City of Peace, Connor P. Smith, Educator, Rashad Young, Director of Language for Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation, and Michael Thomas, Cultural Competency Expert and former Chairman of the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Council.
