SUMMARY:Dan Thorp Book Signing & Talk
DESCRIPTION:Virginia Tech History professor Dan Thorp has recently published his latest book entitled Seeking Justice and will join us at St. Luke & Odd Fellows on Wednesday\, November 5 for a book signing and presentation. \nBefore the Civil War brought emancipation to the South\, some enslaved people managed to use the legal system – the same one that had concocted and long perpetuated their bondage – to sue for their freedom from owners who unlawfully held them in slavery. In Seeking Justice\, Thorp tells the story behind Unis v. Charlton’s Administrator\, one of the most extensive of these freedom suits in all of American history. \nDoors open at 5pm and event begins at 5:30pm. Blacksburg Books will join us with copies of the book as well!
