SUMMARY:Lecture: The Passaic Textile Strike
DESCRIPTION:January 2026 marked the 100th anniversary of the Passaic Textile Strike\, when some 15\,000 wool workers (largely immigrants and women) fought for better conditions\, higher wages\, and a union for more than a year.

SUMMARY:Unveiling Paterson’s Underground Railroad Historic Marker Trail
DESCRIPTION:Unveiling Paterson’s Underground Railroad Historic Marker Trail \nDid you know that Paterson was a documented “station” on the Underground Railroad? Local abolitionists took extraordinary risks to help freedom seekers on their journey north to Canada. \nOne key figure was Josiah P. Huntoon\, whose home at Broadway and Bridge Street—known as “Huntoon’s Corner”—served as a vital link in the Underground Railroad. He worked alongside an interracial network of activists\, including Black engineer William Van Rensalier and local leaders John and Harriet Kline and Henry and Mary Low. \nJoin us for a special lecture presented by historians Jimmy Richardson and Flavia Alaya\, along with Gianfranco Archimede\, Executive Director of the Paterson Historic Preservation Commission—followed by the official unveiling of Paterson’s new Historic Marker Trail commemorating the city’s role in the Underground Railroad. \nThis lecture is free to the public. Call 973-706-6640 to reserve your spot!
