I joined @silk.and.sass1776 and the Hearts of Oak for Caribbean Day at Hamilton Grange. I talked about Hercules Mulligan, Hamilton's affinity for flashy clothing, and the history of tape measures. Mostly I stood around and looked pretty, and that was fine. There was Caribbean music, dance, and storytelling, and I wasn't about to compete with that. It turns out one of my companions is very good friends with one of my many cousins. #18thcenturysewing #18thcenturyclothing #hamilton #heartsofoak #hamiltongrange #caribbeanday https://www.instagram.com/p/Byv6vNPDPOW/?igshid=hzkdf4ygt5ui
