Presenter: Sandra Harbert Petrulionis

Mary Merrick Brooks’ unpublished letters testify to the purposeful strategies of a lifetime of abolitionist reform she enacted – from pushy persistence and feminine wiles, to outright begging – she resisted and she persisted! Mary Merrick Brooks is an American hero – come here why.

Presenter Sandra Harbert Petrulionis is Distinguished Professor of English and American Studies at Penn State University, Altoona, and the author of To Set This World Right: The Antislavery Movement in Thoreau’s Concord.
