The History of Quakerism

An accessible account of the history of Quakerism from the time when it was a movement setting out to change the world, abolish slavery and promote women’s rights.


This series of free talks at Woodbrooke took place in early 2007. Each talk lasted for approximately 40 minutes and was followed by a 20-minute question and answer session. The speaker was Ben Pink Dandelion, Woodbrooke’s Tutor in Postgraduate Quaker Studies. Each talk will make sense individually.
