Join in a discussion led by Melissa Appelt as we remember Maria Murray Robinson, Evanston’s first Black resident.

How did she arrive in Evanston? What do we know about her? How is her life interwoven with First United Methodist Church? What are the ways we can tell her story/our story as we approach our 175th anniversary?

Please join us on November 2 at 9:15 am for an overview of the possibilities and limitations confronting this historical challenge.
