About

New London’s 400-year history reflects the broader American story, yet many contributions of its Black community have long been overlooked. This tour highlights those stories of struggle, resilience, abolition, education, and community, honoring and learning about those who fought for equality and inspiring us to continue their work to deliver the promise of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for all. Led by local historians Nicole Thomas and Tom Schuch.

Feel free to bring snacks and drinks aboard, but glass is prohibited. Also please know that there is no bathroom on the boat.
