Unbroken Bonds: The Meaning of Slavery and Abolition in a Northern Textile City
Explore the connection - and tension - between slavery, capitalism, and abolition in Lowell, Massachusetts, an antebellum, northern textile city. Using primary sources from Black and white Lowellians, students examine Lowellians’ involvement in and reactions to an economic system that profited from the enslavement of African people.

Thank you for this information! Love the history of the area.
what did the men do ?
At that time men would wake up at sunrise, do their farm chores then leave for their trade or profession. Sometimes their business was on the farm other times it was in the town. They would have been blacksmiths, coopers, mill workers, factory workers, wagon builders, merchants and other things in not thinking of. Women were home all day their jobs were literally at home farming cooking washing, raising the children. It was a hard life for everyone back then.
Nice
Cool.
I am a professional wordsmith, which explains why I am writing so much, and in such an organized way.
I am 86 years old and remember growing up in Lowell in a third-floor pt. at 101 Merrimack St. I spent several more years in an apprt in a red-brick project building at 312 Adams st. for a total of about 16 years, during which I have recently learned that the very first McDonald's in all of New England was opened in the north part of Lowell. I was very much aware of President FDR at the time and I may have appreciated the fact that his party was instrumental in providing me a home in their "projects" that I enjoyed.
I will surely come back here to comment much more knowledgably AFTER my trip to the Center. I am so disappointed that there aren't already a slew of rave reviews here.
. ..that was 8 years ago. This year, their rolling out the NEW Lowell Mills educational system! It includes a drag queen with purple hair singing and dancing their way into your 5 year olds heart...They won't discuss the Mill Girls because they are now known as "millsters"...weaving by anyone younger than 18 will be ignored- that's child labor...and any linens shipped down South were not sent to the slaves, because the Civil War never happened....stay tuned for more changes as the loonie left invents them....

Great video and very informative. Wish it were much longer. Thank you for posting and hoping to see more.
End compulsory education. End mandatory school, ged and hsd requirements, age limits, minimum wage, and exsessive regulations. End public school. End gov mandated curriculums. End one size fits all education. People should be able to learn how to do a good job they want so they can afford a house and car before 18. For those parents who can't afford it, chairty (where the donar gets a full non refundable tax credit that Carry's over for an unlimited amount of years) and or the about $15,000/y spent on k thru 12 could pay for it(vouchers for private or home school or job training) and trash k thru 12 and some of that money could be used to promote more independence and healthy living. Kids shouldn't be forced to go to school. Kids should have much more choice over their education. Elon musk and many of the smartest and richest people seem to agree that the public education system sucks and that kids should pretty much be provided with opportunity to learn useful info such as job skills but allowed to choose what they r interested in at least to a larger degree. Elon musk taught himself to build rockets by reading books reportedly and elon said like u don't need college to learn stuff every thing is available basically for free . Elon said like there's no need to have a college or high school degree... Watch videos about elon musk's opinions on education if u need more convincing, If u treat kids with respect, not lesser than due to age, and don't be a hypocrite, that often builds their trust and they will be more likely to listen to u. Many kids copy you, being copied is like the highest compliment. There shouldn't be a need to force or coerce them to learn things. When u force or coerce them u r teaching them to use force and coercion to get whatever they want and the cycle of violence force and coersion often continues, it also can ruin trust making them less likely to do what u want when they can get away with it. If u can't convince them with uncoersive persuasion to learn something, whatever u want them to learn probably isn't right for them to learn at that time if at all. Doing what u want them to do and explaining why and offering to teach them how to do what u do might get them to learn that. If they know learning a certian thing will help improve their life that can help them also, such as a job skills so they can get a job and buy things. U don't Wana be forced to learn things so don't be a hypocrite. People who learn things just cuz they r forced or coerced often never use the info exsept to pass a test they r coerced to take shortly after then they often forget it soon after that, cuz they didn't have a good reason to learn it. If they r provided with good educational and job training opportunities and proper encouragement and given choice over their education, they will probably be smarter than what k thru 12 turns out. merely being smart isn't only what's important, being moral also is. If u treat them how u wouldn't want them to treat u by forcing them to learn things, u r teaching them to be immoral. They r often more likey to do as u do not what u say. Just look at how dumb the adult population is, voting in evil polticans. Many High school grads don't even know how to work a cash register and r not considered skilled labor, and u think they should be forced to learn a bunch of useless info they will just forget after the test? Many kids often Kno what's better for themself than what gov thinks is best for them. The education system needs to change for the better and this is how u do it..

dress and bonnet are all wrong.. if this is supposed to be early 1830's.. and great expectations was published 1861. so what time is this supposed to be? dickens came in 1842. I dressed as a mill girl in lowell in the 1980's..
Am I the only one? I watched this at the mills! It’s great.
In my elementary and high school years of the '50s growing up in LowellLand, I don't recall learning anything about the Indians that occupied the land around Lowell let alone the illustrious history of what all these red brick buildings were all about as well as the Folks within. Heck, I thought every city had canals for some strange reason. Indeed must say, I envy what the teacher facilitators and the facility of the TIHC have to offer as well as the National Park City/Lowell have preserved. For me a novel by Zaroulis in the '80s, Call the Darkness Light, really turned me on as to what my BirthCity has to offer in terms of the City's and Country's roots. Kudos to all!
Wow, such a beautiful and inspirational video. Thank you.
a lot of audience shots and not enough on the character
