Dr. Virginia Sanchez-Korrol, notable historian and author, will present an illustrated presentation based on her book, ‘Feminist and Abolitionist: The Story of Emilia Casanova.’ The presentation captures the legacy of a fascinating woman, a cause, a culture, and an intriguing glimpse of the Latino American community in New York City during the 19th century. From her baronial mansion in The Bronx, Emilia Casanova set out to secure Cuban independence and almost changed the course of American history. Dr. Korrol will also have copies of her book available for sale.
This event will be held at The Museum of Bronx History, 3266 Bainbridge Ave., Bronx, NY 10467.
