Shadows Fall North documentary shows in Kittery

April 3, 2018 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm


Join producers Nancy & Brian Vawter and BHTNH Director JerriAnne Boggis for a lively and insightful dialogue after each screening.

Rescheduled from March 7th. Join SURJ members and Atlantic Media for a viewing of the powerful local documentary Shadows Fall North. This documentary focuses on the efforts of two dedicated historic preservationists and activists, Valerie Cunningham (co-author of Black Portsmouth: Three Centuries of African American Heritage) of Portsmouth and JerriAnne Boggis of Milford, to recover the stories of people who have been rendered nearly invisible in the historical record, from individuals laid to rest at the African Burying Ground in Portsmouth to the novelist Harriet Wilson of Milford to the twenty slaves who petitioned the state legislature for their freedom in 1779… and many more.
We are collecting donations at the door and will be giving all funds raised to Black Heritage Trail of NH.
