SUMMARY:Exhibit: Black People and the Battle of Brooklyn
DESCRIPTION:Black people played important and varied roles in the Battle of Brooklyn in August 1776 – the first and largest battle of the American War for Independence. They served as soldiers and spies on both sides\, built the American forts in downtown Brooklyn\, and serviced the British ships in the Narrows. They fought to win freedom for themselves and used the conflict to escape bad situations and advance their own careers. This FREE outdoor pop-up exhibit explores this complex history by profiling ten everyday heroes who participated in the battle. \n\n\n\n\nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Exhibit: Battle Pass in Prospect Park
DESCRIPTION:Join Prospect Park Alliance to learn more about the Revolutionary War’s Battle of Brooklyn\, the first and largest battle of the American War for Independence\, on its 250th anniversary with this replica of the famous Battle Pass. In August 1776\, American troops established a defensive position on this site\, in the hills separating Flatbush from the rest of Brooklyn\, to hold off the British. However\, on August 27\, British troops evaded these defenses\, forcing the Americans to withdraw across the Gowanus Creek to temporary safety. This replica military installation serves as a place for visitors to learn more about this formative battle. \n\n\n\n\nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Black Loyalist Virtual Tour
DESCRIPTION:Join Prospect Park Alliance for a virtual tour of the Black Loyalist Heritage Centre in Shelburne\, Nova Scotia at Lefferts Historic House. Many Black Brooklynites worked for the British army during the American Revolution. Some gained freedom from enslavement by doing so. When the Americans won the war\, these Black Loyalists feared the new nation would not respect their rights. So they evacuated to Nova Scotia in 1783. The Black Loyalist Heritage Centre interprets\, safeguards\, and promotes the history and heritage of the Black Loyalists. This special virtual tour of the Centre will be available during open hours at Lefferts. \n\n\n\n\nRegister Here
