> Harriet and Stephen Myers were middle class, Black abolitionists who lived in Arbor Hill during the mid-1800s. Through their work with the Albany Vigilance Committee, they opened the path of freedom for numerous freedom seekers. This story of perseverance, brotherhood, and friendship illuminates a past history once forgotten.
