Free Market of Ideas

The Free Market of Ideas of the First Parish Universalist Church of Stoughton offers a wide variety of programs of enrichment, education, and enlightenment on an extensive array of spiritual, cultural, and social issues.

Through our Free Market of Ideas, we at First Parish seek to reach out to our communities and raise the level of public discourse on matters of common concern, as well as to introduce to the general public ideas and concepts that might not be readily available elsewhere.

Programs of the Free Market of Ideas are held at the church on a regular basis, and are always free of charge. You are always most welcome to attend any of these events that might be of interest to you! Watch this space for upcoming programs, or if you would like to be on our Free Market of Ideas mailing list, please contact us.

 


Two intriguing programs with our member, Debbie Allen—

the noted author, Deborah Hill!

Thursday, May 3, 7:30 PM

 

A Look at

The War of 1812

 

In this presentation our own author, Debbie Allen (aka Deborah Hill) will help us observe the bi-centennial of The War of 1812 with a talk about how it affected New England. According to her research, as far as the Yankee was concerned, Britain wasn’t the enemy. The enemy was the Federal government, and secession was in the air-- with good reason. In the process of writing her newly edited and published novel, This is the House, Debbie uncovered lots of fascinating new details about this often overlooked period in America’s history. She will share these insights as part of this very special Free Market of Ideas program
