Dr. Benjamin Remillard will discuss the role of New England’s people of color in the Revolution, what drew them to the Patriot or Loyalist causes, as well as what life was like for them and their communities after the war as the new nation struggled to find its footing.Benjamin Remillard is a Visiting Assistant Professor in the Department of History and Classics at Providence College. He recently received his Ph.D. in History from the University of New Hampshire and his current book project, Friends, Brothers, and Citizens: The Revolutionary War Veterans of Color Who Shaped the Early Republic, explores the lives of the Revolution’s veterans and non-veteran Patriots of color who lived across the Northeast during the early American republic.

Whitelam Books

Join our no-commitment Non-Fiction Book Club led by Nina! This month we're reading The Confidante: The Untold Story of the Woman Who Helped Win WWII and Shape Modern America by Christopher C. Gorham.&nbsp; And author Christopher Gorham will be joining us for the discussion!As Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s special envoy to Europe in World War II she went where the president couldn’t go. She was among the first Allied women to enter a liberated concentration camp, and stood in the Eagle’s Nest, Hitler’s mountain retreat, days after its capture. Though Anna Rosenberg emerged from modest immigrant beginnings with only a high school education, she was the real power behind national policies critical to America winning the war and prospering afterward.&nbsp; Astonishingly, her story remains largely forgotten.Rosenberg advanced from a career in public relations in 1920s Manhattan to become FDR’s unofficial adviser, and soon wielded enormous influence—no less potent for being subtle. Roosevelt dubbed her “my Mrs. Fix-It.” Her extraordinary career continued after his death as she fought tirelessly for causes from racial integration to women’s equality to national health care.The Confidante explores who gets to be at the forefront of history, and why. Rosenberg’s position as “the power behind,” combined with her status as an immigrant and a Jewish woman, served to diminish her importance. In this inspiring, impeccably researched, and revelatory book, Christopher C. Gorham at last affords Anna Rosenberg the recognition she so richly deserves.

128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric Stays Independent

128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric

128 Announces Local Independent Ownership For Good One question that Ryan Williams, President of 128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, and Electric, keeps getting is: “Did you sell?” and the answer is always In recent years, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and other home services have seen significant consolidation. In Greater Boston, 128 is one of the only home service companies that remain local, private, and independently-owned. This led Williams to seek out organizations that aren't just in business to sell, but to thrive long-term. He found the Tugboat Institute®, focusing on value, purpose, and people-driven businesses planning to remain independently-owned for 100+ years through their Certified Evergreen® status. 128 applied with the help of its entire team and received the honor of becoming Certified Evergreen® a year later. Watch 128's announcement here: https://youtu.be/g5rsiZW7B1k?si=KeR42U8H9GXnCJkH Does this impact customers? Customers want reliability and support for years down the road from their home service company, and choosing an independently-owned company can reduce uncertainties. Does this impact tradespeople? Ownership can influence company culture, communication, alignment, and priorities. With a labor shortage, it's important there are industry leaders willing to continually invest in education, which 128 is proud to offer its own school. Choose Local and Independent. 128 is proud to announce its continued local and independent ownership to bring stability and confidence to employees, customers, and communities for generations. Williams states that "128 answers to its customers and employees, not investors", and is not for sale. 128 Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, and Electric was founded in 1992 and is a top home service company in Eastern MA. 128 is known for its 5-star service, base+ membership, Finish Strong Friday®, and its Red Sox partnership.

Choose an Austin Prep Education Rooted in Augustinian Values

Austin Preparatory School, located in Reading, Massachusetts, is an independent Catholic prep school rooted in the Augustinian tradition. Serving students in grades 6 through 12, Austin Prep has cultivated a close-knit learning community since its founding in 1961. Guided by its mission to inspire hearts to unite, minds to inquire, and hands to serve, the school challenges students through a rigorous college preparatory program that includes honors and Advanced Placement courses, personalized instruction, and intentionally small classes. An Austin Prep education is preparation for the journey of life. Beyond academics, the school’s unwritten curriculum – the lived expression of veritas, unitas, and caritas (truth, unity, and love) – forms the heart of its mission. “At Austin Prep, we are on a journey that is life-changing and important,” says Head of School James Hickey, Ph.D. “Our patron, St. Augustine, embarked on a journey for the truth. At our core is an institution on the same journey, committed to exemplary teaching and learning.” Serving grades 6–12 under one roof allows this leading prep school to guide students through every stage of development—academic, social, emotional, physical, and spiritual. Community stands at the center of this experience, nurturing belonging and inspiring students to lead lives of purpose. Austin Prep athletics teams, competing in the New England Preparatory School Athletic Council (NEPSAC), are recognized among the best north of Boston, reflecting the same drive and integrity found in the classroom. Nearly every graduate continues on to a four-year college, prepared not only for success in higher education but for a meaningful life shaped by faith, friendship, and service.
