Dive into a lesser-known chapter of LGBTQ+ history at the Hurley Heritage Society’s presentation on Molly Houses, homosexuality, and the eighteenth-century English colonial world. This Thursday, Dr. Megan Rhodes Victor, Assistant Professor of Anthropology at CUNY Queens College, will explore these early safe spaces for LGBTQ+ people at the Old Dutch Church in Kingston. As part of the 2024 Burning of Kingston event, this lecture sheds light on the lives and communities often overlooked in colonial history. Free and open to the public, it’s an insightful look at a hidden facet of the past.
