Oysters & Origins: Black History on the Half Shell
Oysters & Origins: Black History on the Half Shell
Oysters were once a daily staple of Brooklyn life — and by the mid-1800s, Black oystermen were at the heart of the waterfront industry that fed the borough and shaped its shoreline. Join us at the Lott House for an afternoon of history with Ben Moody of The Real Mother Shuckers. Moody will discuss the role of Black people in the oyster trade from ancient times to 19th-century Brooklyn, and connect this legacy to Jamaica Bay today. Ben “Moody” Harney, of TheRealMotherShuckers, will demonstrate historic oystering tools and techniques. A special exhibition of the Lott family's oystering collection will also be on display. This program offers a unique chance to explore Brooklyn's waterfront heritage. Registration is Required. This program is recommended for ages 10+. Children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at all times.This program is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council.
