MAXCNY Lunch and Lecture Series

MAXCNY Lunch and Lecture Series 2012 "Rethinking the Seneca Falls Convention" The first women’s rights convention in the world took place in Seneca Falls, New York. Based on her new biography of abolitionist, feminist, and Quaker minister Lucretia Mott, Associate Professor of History Carol Faulkner explores the distinctive historical context that inspired the women’s rights movement. Lucretia Mott’s travels in central and western New York in the summer of 1848 show surprising connections between women’s rights and other social and political movements. Join us to learn more about this important piece of central New York history!
