FRIDAY, JANUARY 21 5:30 p.m., Dinner at 6 Presentation to follow Wallace Alcorn will present the largely untold story of William Henry Brisbane: The Glory of a Hated Man: From Slaveholder to Abolitionist. Brisbane was an ordained Baptist pastor, medical doctor and slave-holding South Carolina planter. Becoming convinced the Bible does not favor slavery, he freed his own slaves in 1837. He was driven from the south and dismissed from several churches where he preached against slavery. Wallace Alcorn is Bisbane’s biographer, having obtained Brisbane’s journals, sermons and speeches over 40 years of research and study. Wallace Alcorn has written a forthcoming full length critical biography and has published and presented many articles and papers on Brisbane.
