Presented by the Wayland Museum and Historical Society, the First Parish Wayland and the Wayland Free Public Library via Zoom and in-person at the First Parish Wayland.
Lydia Moland talks about Lydia Maria Child, one of Wayland’s most renowned citizens and a courageous abolitionist who lived on Old Sudbury Road in the mid-19th century. Child shocked her readers by publishing the first book-length argument against slavery – so radical that friends abandoned Child and her book sales plummeted.
Ms. Moland, author of the 2023 book "Lydia Maria Child: A Radical American Life," conducted some of her research at the Wayland Museum & Historical Society where she reviewed letters written by Child as well as other documents owned by the Historical Society. Moland is a professor of philosophy at Colby College in Waterville, Maine.
