Phillis Wheatley 250 - Boston Series Introduction

Meet Boston, in partnership with Spora Stories, has proudly produced a short film series entitled Phillis Wheatley 250. This project celebrates the amazing poet and prodigy Phillis Wheatley, a transcendent, transatlantic figure who was the first Black woman to publish a book of poetry in America. Her poetry arrived in Boston aboard The Dartmouth, one of the ships famously involved in the Boston Tea Party. This series is both contemporary and reflective, asking leaders of today's Boston - all women of color - to discuss Phillis's legacy and how it endures and impacts the work they do as creators, innovators, and cultural ambassadors. As we commemorate her remarkable life, as we approach the 250th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party, and as the City of Boston launches its inaugural Phillis Wheatley Month, Meet Boston is honored to release this series in partnership with Spora Stories.
