Explore the American Revolution through the perspective of African Americans who were forced to navigate a conflict shaped by competing promises of liberty. Caught between patriots and loyalists, Black individuals faced difficult choices that could determine freedom, survival, or continued bondage.

Presented as part of American Revolutions: Rev250 at the Elizabeth Public Library, this mini exhibit contributes to the public commemoration of the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence through rotating monthly displays that highlight revolutionary-era events and Elizabeth connections.
