The History of Health Sciences Lecture
Yesterday, I went to the 62nd annual History of Health Sciences Lecture. It was very interesting. The lecture was about the emancipation stories of slaves. These stories were telling how they got free in the midst of the civil war. John Washington was one of the slaves who wrote a narrative. His narrative was written around 1873. None of the narratives have been edited or touched because they are priceless. The lecture was about 2 hours long. After the lecture I went upstairs with Mr. Greenberg to the reception. The reception was very nice and the people were very friendly. I had a great time. My favorite part of the lecture is when the professor talked about how John Washington fell in love with a girl named Annie and how they have the love letters that he wrote her. This was just a great day in general.
