Radicals of Cambridge
FOR GRADES 8-12
What student would prefer a boring day in class, listening to a lecture on history, versus experiencing it for him or herself?
From radical early thinker Cotton Mather, to philosophers and activists Ralph Waldo Emerson and Charles Sumner, students will walk through the exact sites where the radical ideas and movements first blossomed throughout the nation. Some of the tour’s stops include the Brattle House, a site on the Underground Railroad, and Harvard’s Memorial Hall. So skip the lecture, and come tour!
