Our fi rst and one of our favorite Thursday night speakers,Professor Sean Moran, History Professor and Head of the Liberal Arts Master’s Program at Oakland University returnsto discuss how in the late 18th and early 19th centuries an active campaign to end slavery seized British politics at the same time the British Empire expanded.
