SUMMARY:Lecture: The Battle of Golden Hill\, 1770
DESCRIPTION:The Battle of Golden Hill was one of the more obscure conflicts during the Revolutionary Period. This skirmish in the center of New York City in January 1770 was born out of the frustration of not only the Sons of Liberty in New York\, but of a larger group of citizens who were weary of years of military overreach. \nThe men who fought on the inhabitants’ side participated in one of the first successful coordinated acts of resistance by the colonial population against the British military system. Join Program Specialist Vivian Davis as she explores colonial frustrations\, the British response\, and how this early confrontation foreshadowed the outbreak of war in the colonies. \nThis program is free to the public. \nClick here to reserve your seat!

SUMMARY:Lecture: ‘Havens for Deviates’ - The Regulation of Queer Bars in Mid-Century Paterson
DESCRIPTION:Between the 1930s and the 1960s\, the New Jersey Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) suspended the liquor licenses of any bar or tavern in the state that was found to serve patrons belonging to the LGBTQ community. In the city of Paterson\, a total of 12 establishments were targeted by the ABC under this justification. \nMuseum Attendant Angelo Schimmenti will tell the stories of several of these bars and taverns\, providing insight into the state-sponsored repression of public expression of queer identity and offering a glimpse into the queer community of mid-century Paterson. \nThis program is free to the public. \nReserve your seat here!
