Beauport, Sleeper-McCann House

Jessica, we want to express our gratitude for your feedback. Your honesty is greatly valued, and we firmly believe that open dialogues like this are essential for our organization's growth. We acknowledge the presence of several objects at Beauport, the Sleeper-McCann house, that carry racist and dehumanizing connotations, and we are committed to sharing them on our tour in order to foster discussions around the narratives associated with these items. This is an ongoing process, and we are actively working on revising our tours and our guide training to incorporate these stories and enhance the visitor experience. Your feedback will help us in making this happen. Our Study Center's continuous efforts, particularly through the Recovering New England’s Voices initiative, are instrumental in helping us authentically convey these stories. We would appreciate hearing more about your experience on your tour; if you would like to speak further or send along any additional comments, please feel free to contact us at [email protected].
