My recent trip to Washington's Headquarters State Historic Site in Newburgh had a fascinating bonus: viewing original pieces of the Great Chain boom assembly! If you've read #EspionageandEnslavement or #rememberliss you know that the Great Chain which was floated on this enormous boom was stretched across the Hudson River at West Point. Cousin to "Culper, Jr." - an ironmaster named Peter Townsend, created the Chain. At the end of the war Solomon Townsend (older brother to the spy) married Peter's daughter Anne, bringing the Great Chain even closer to Liss's story. Solomon later wrote letters with Robert to his iron anchor business contacts in Charleston to help bring Liss back home to New York. #CulperSpyRing #blackhistory365 #sschat

I am so proud to be included in The New Historia from The New School in NYC! Read their article, my newly published editorial, and explore the Schema about Liss!
I'm proud to be a presenter! "Re-imagining the Revolution: Liss and Black History in the Classroom" How can we reinterpret the story of America’s birth to include the Black experience? Using innovative links to over 100 primary documents through the New York Archives, a text for middle graders titled “Remember Liss” is breaking through barriers in schools across the country by introducing the extraordinary life of an enslaved Black woman from Long Island named Liss. Her remarkable story is intertwined with well-known events like the Boston Massacre, the Battle of Long Island, and the Culper Spy Ring while also revealing lesser-known facts about the extent of slavery in New York. Meet author and educator Claire Bellerjeau and discover how her non-profit is working to open minds by establishing Liss as a new founding figure.
