Book Talk: Mat Johnson presents The Great Negro Plot
In 1741, a young indentured servant claimed to have information about a black conspiracy against the white people of Manhattan. This news threw the city into a violent uproar; while some citizens took their anger out on innocent victims, others questioned the truth behind the accusation. Join us as author Mat Johnson reconstructs this dramatic moment in history - one that still reverberates today. Free ($5 suggested donation). Melville Gallery (213 Water Street between Fulton & Beekman). For more information call 212.748.8568.
