Partnership of Historic Bostsons
People who are not Indigenous often think of King Philip’s War – if they know of it - as part of a quaint, distant past. But is it just an event of 350 years ago? This important panel discussion, organized with the Cambridge Public Library and History Cambridge, tells us that it is still deeply present. Join panelists Hartman Deetz (Mashpee Wampanoag), Brad Lopes (Aquinnah Wampanoag),Elizabeth Solomon (Massachusetts at Ponkapoag) and Brittney Walley (Hassanamisco Nipmuc) in exploring how King Philip's War continues to shape daily life, experience and memory.
