Exhibit: The Rise of Newspapers in the 19th Century

Controversial elections, voting rights, abolition and slavery!  In 1820s New York, as these issues inflamed public discussion, the burgeoning newspaper industry fanned the fire and competed as forums for debate! This exhibit looks at the newspaper industry of the 1820s –and the bold entry of women and African Americans into the business of print. [Open during Museum hours, 11am–4pm, Tuesday through Sunday.]
