FtV – Return to the Boston Massacre
Welcome to New England Legends From the Vault – FtV Episode 7 – Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger revisit Boston’s North End and swing by Paul Revere’s house to discuss the Boston Massacre. On March 5, 1770, five colonists were killed in the streets of Boston by British soldiers. Six more were wounded. The event became known as the Boston Massacre. This tragedy helped start a revolution because of a now-famous and legendary engraving made by Paul Revere. The only problem is… Revere’s image doesn’t depict what really happened. Fake news? Propaganda? We explore the legend! This first aired July 5, 2018.
