Learn the stories of the Clotilda from historian Hannah Durkin. Her work, The Survivors of the Clotilda, details the harrowing tale of the last slave ship, it’s illegal Atlantic crossing, and the 110 captives aboard, from their kidnappings in what is modern-day Nigeria through their terrifying 45-day journey. Durkin will be joined in conversation by members of the Clotilda Descendants Association. This is a conversation no Mobilian will want to miss. Join us on Sunday, February 4, 2024 at 11:30AM at The Haunted Book Shop at 9 S. Joachim Street as we welcome Hannah Durkin and her incredible work to Mobile. Seating is limited, so make your reservation now. A book signing will be held following the conversation.
