Elizabeth Jennings and The Fight for Equality on NYC’s Streetcars
How do we change unjust systems? Through the newly reimagined exhibition Riding Towards Justice, students will learn about Elizabeth Jennings and her fight for equal access on public transportation in New York City in the mid-1800s. Students will explore museum artifacts, look at historic documents, and examine the museum’s 1885 streetcar to understand the importance of transportation within communities, as well as the role it has played in social justice movements. Students will have the chance to climb aboard an historic streetcar.
