The Compass: From Rhode Island to the World – The Stillhouse Cove Remembrance Project - The Stillhouse Cove and the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade, featuring Dr. Richard A. Lobban, Jr.

The Compass #25 10/01/25 - Tonight on The Compass, amidst the dreaded government shutdown, and the very sad death of revered global expert on primatology, Dr. Jane Goodall, hope springs eternal through citizen-driven histories and the making of a critical remembrance project that situates tiny Rhode Island’s role in rum production and human enslavement. Rhode Island’s own Dr. Richard Lobban, Professor Emeritus of Rhode Island College, and Adjunct Professor with the Naval War College, Newport, will share the work being undertaken by a collective of locals to share the full history of Stillhouse Cove with the world.
