Catherine Allgor and Peter Drummey of the Massachusetts Historical Society joined Boston Public Radio Friday to preview the society's new exhibition about the Boston Massacre.
The exhibition, Fire! Voices From the Boston Massacre, runs from Oct. 31, 2019 to June 30, 2020. It draws on testimony from dozens of eyewitnesses and trial documents to tell the stories of ordinary men and women who lived through a flash point in American history.
We then tested our guests on some of Boston's history gems with a history themed news quiz.
Allgor is president of the organization, and Drummey is the Stephen T. Riley librarian.
