Historian and author Alison Parker is set to visit the Women’s Rights National Historical Park (NHP) in Seneca Falls on Saturday, May 17. Parker’s visit is part of an event where she will discuss her research on the life of Mary Church Terrell, a prominent activist for civil rights and suffrage.
Mary Church Terrell was a well-known figure in the fight for women’s rights and racial equality in the United States. Her efforts have been the subject of extensive study and scholarship, including that of Parker. The historian’s work delves into the life and contributions of Terrell, providing an in-depth look at her role in the advancement of civil rights and women’s suffrage.
This event at the Women’s Rights NHP offers an opportunity for attendees to learn more about the history of women’s rights and the significant role Mary Church Terrell played in this movement. The park itself is a symbol of the struggle for equality, making it a fitting venue for the discussion of such a key figure in the fight for women’s rights.
