SUMMARY:GHS - Presentation by Tim Breen & Annual Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The Great Maple Syrup Bubble: Greensboro Historical Society Presentation and Annual MeetingMonday\, August 4 at 7:00pmat the Fellowship Hall of the UCC in Greensboro\nThe Greensboro Historical Society invites you to our Annual Meeting featuring a presentation by historian Tim Breen. His topic\, “The Great Maple Syrup Bubble\,” reconstructs a lost 18th-century world of social reformers and ambitious entrepreneurs.\nDuring that time\, many Americans began openly criticizing the enslavement of Africans\, particularly in the Caribbean Islands\, where the majority of household sugar was manufactured. As a way to undermine this cruel trade\, people in northern cities argued that large-scale production of maple syrup might cut demand for cane sugar.\nCome learn more about this sobering story of good intentions\, erroneous agricultural advice\, and unfavorable geography.\nAll are welcome! Maple refreshments will be served. Bring your questions and curiosity.
