When called upon to do so\, he and his family gave temporary sanctuary in their home to fugitives heading north. Thoreau wrote essays and delivered several anti-slavery public lectures.  His most famous one was "Slavery in Massachusetts\," which he delivered at a famous rally in Framingham on July 4\, 1854.

Designed for all ages\, this program will bring to life Thoreau's singular observations and concerns about social justice in a new nation. This presentation will conclude with a lively Q&A with Richard Smith about how and why Thoreau ideas and actions remains relevant today.
