Carin Bloom: Women Waging War in the American Revolution

The Horry County Museum presents a program by Carin Bloom on her contribution to the book Women Waging War in the American Revolution on August 12 at 1 p.m. Carin’s lecture recounts the few known details of Lucy Banbury’s harrowing escape from enslavement in South Carolina, her allegiance to the British Army as a Black Loyalist during the American Revolution, and her eventual freedom in Nova Scotia, Canada and beyond.

Carin is the Manager of Education and Programming for the Historic Charleston Foundation in Charleston, SC, where she puts her passion to work every day for K-12 visitors, as well as in planning and executing interpretive programming for learners of all ages and historical interests.
