Living History

Celebrating Women's History Month

For Women's History Month this March, we featured a different activist with a connection to the Meetinghouse each week. Each profile is accompanied with links for further learning, information about present-day organizations that highlight these women's contributions to the women's rights movement in general, but more specifically to the Greater Rochester and Finger Lakes areas, and recommended reading.

Celebrating Black History Month

For Black History Month this February, we featured a different activist with a connection to the Meetinghouse each Friday. Each profile is accompanied by links for further learning, information about present-day organizations that highlight Black activist's contributions to the culture and history of the Greater Rochester area as well as the Finger Lakes area, and recommended reading.

ABOUT US

A small Quaker community built a simple meetinghouse in rural western New York - and from that vantage point witnessed (and often led) reform movements that changed democracy in nineteenth century America.
