Could the scandalous culmination of the bitterest rivalry of all Founding Fathers really be the reason the new democratic government of the United States survived?
Join us for this special presentation in commemoration of the 220th anniversary of Aaron Burr and Alexander Hamilton’s duel in Weehawken, New Jersey. Dr. Jason Opal (Dean and Director of the Ohio State University’s Mansfield Campus) will join Mansion staff to discuss the impact of the battle between United States Senator Burr (second husband of our own Eliza Jumel) and Secretary of the Treasury Hamilton on an emerging political system in post-Revolution America.
Free Eventbrite registration required to receive the Zoom link; $5 suggested donation.
Starts at sunset. Bring a picnic blanket and some snacks to Roger Morris Park and enjoy a free screening of Rio (2011).
About the film: “When Blu, a domesticated macaw from small-town Minnesota, meets the fiercely independent Jewel, he takes off on an adventure to Rio de Janeiro with the bird of his dreams.” Rated G.
