SUMMARY:Cocked and Boozy: A lively online lecture with author Brooke Barbier
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a lively talk with historian and author Brooke Barbier\, all about the influence of tavern and drinking culture on the American Revolution\, particularly in Massachusetts. \nEighteenth-century Americans consumed a staggering amount of alcohol compared to us today. Drink influenced their politics\, built and sustained their relationships\, and drove the economy. Booze was not a small part of colonial society\, nor covertly consumed in private spaces—it was integral to American life. When the colonists rebelled against the British Empire\, this culture of drink and taverns helped foster revolution. \nBrooke Barbier is a public historian who received her PhD in American history from Boston College\, researching Boston’s social and cultural life during and after the American Revolution. While earning her graduate degree\, she taught history at Boston College and Stonehill College. \nThe museum is offering this online talk free to the public with a suggested donation of $10. \nRegister here.
