What Would Lucretia Mott Say?
Sunday, February 8th at 2 p.m at Bristol Friends Meeting, Bristol, PA
A Living History Event at Bristol Friends Meeting
As the United States marks 250 years since its founding, Bristol Friends Meeting invites the community to reflect on the moral voices that helped shape the nation. One such voice belongs to Lucretia Mott—Quaker minister, abolitionist, women’s rights pioneer, and steadfast advocate for peace and equality.
What would Lucretia Mott say? We will find out.
On Sunday, February 8 at 2:00 p.m., Kim Hanley, a historical reenactor portraying Lucretia Mott through the American Historical Theatre, will bring Mott’s words, convictions, and Quaker faith to life at Bristol Friends Meeting, 235 Market Street, Bristol.
Through story and dialogue, audiences will encounter Mott’s courageous witness on slavery, women’s rights, and the Quaker belief in the Inner Light present in every person.
This free program offers a timely opportunity to engage with Quaker history and consider how Mott’s legacy speaks to the challenges and hopes of our own time.
