We will MEET at Restoration Plaza (Fulton & Marcy) at 12:30pm. Then we will journey to four sites: Site 1: Bridge Street AME Church, congregation rooted in abolitionist struggle. Bridge Street assisted “newly arrived fugitives from the South and offered refuge to black New Yorkers fleeing Manhattan’s Draft Riots in 1863”. Moved to BedStuy from downtown Brooklyn in 1938. Address: 277 Stuyvesant Avenue, Brooklyn, NY
