This Event has Passed
Company Towns of New Jersey with Mumtahanah Williams-Ansari
These towns were highly controlled and included residences, stores, schools, and churches. Employees were even paid in company cash. While this may have made for tight-knit communities, workers and their families had very little autonomy or opportunities for growth.
About the speaker: Mumtahanah Ansari is a member of Mahwah Museum’s Board of Trustees. She is also founder and president of Beyond Clouds and Women Are Medicine Health Initiative, organizations that assist people of color with a focus on Indigenous communities.
