The Lenape & Revolutionary New Jersey

The Lenape & Revolutionary New Jersey
November 12 at 7PM in the METC Education Annex at 23 Main Street.
$15/person, free for METC members

Two hundred and fifty years ago, North America was torn apart by the violence and chaos of the American Revolution. There’s more to the story than we all learned in school. The Revolution didn’t just set Patriots against Loyalists; it was a brutal civil war that also divided America’s Indigenous nations. Join historian Henry Crouse as he discusses the Lenape, New Jersey’s Indigenous inhabitants, and their role in the complicated, cataclysmic conflict that birthed the United States.

Dr. Henry Crouse recently completed his dissertation “Captains and King” at Rutgers University. He teaches at West Morris High School and completed his graduate work at Rutgers and Brown University. He is currently adapting his dissertation, which follows a prominent Lenape family throughout history, into a book for publication.
