Attendees will hear the story of what life was like for Peter Salem, still an enslaved solider, during the tumultuous times of the American Revolution. When talk of freedom was heard everywhere, Salem had little hope of gaining emancipation for himself. He was an enlisted soldier with the rank of sharpshooter and is credited for fighting in the battles of Concord, Bunker Hill, Saratoga, Stony Point, and the battle of Monmouth in New Jersey.
