Join Another View in partnership with the Virginia Beach History Museums, along with Andrea Davis, Executive Director of the Black Loyalist Heritage Centre, and Graham Nickerson, professional historian and Black Loyalist descendant, for Another View: Fighting For Emancipation, Black Loyalists in the American Revolution.

Find out why these people of African descent sided with the British during the American Revolutionary War. And what’s the connection between the City of Virginia Beach and the Black Loyalists who left America and made a home in Canada?

You won’t want to miss this extended 90-minute broadcast. It all starts Thursday, June 26, from noon until 1:30 p.m. on WHRV 89.5FM!

This specially funded event is part of VA250, commemorating 250 years of our Nation in the Commonwealth.
