John Gee Slave Medicine

 

Please join Bobette Braxton with the John Gee Black Historical Center on Sunday, August 18 at 2:00 PM for a presentation on slave medicine.

Bobette will discuss how herbs, trees, and some unexpected things were used by slaves to heal and strengthen their bodies for the laborious work on plantations.

Bobette has spent more than 15 years presenting programs on slave medicine and their uses both at the John Gee Black Historical Center and other venues.

This event is free and open to all.
