Race Relations in New Hampshire, 1835
By Shay Zeller on Friday, November 4, 2005.
In 1835, a mob of angry white men used ropes, chains and oxen to drag a racially integrated school off of its foundations and into a lake. And this happened right here in New Hampshire. We'll talk with Dartmouth historian Craig Wilder about the short and influential life of the Noyes Academy. We'll also talk with University of New Hampshire's Don Quigley about the school's axe-throwing competition this weekend. Don is Professor Emeritus of Forestry at UNH, and he’s been throwing axes for over 30 years.
