In Elizabeth Taylor Greenfield: The Abolitionist “Black Swan”, Christine Kinealy shares the story of Elizabeth.
Born into slavery, Elizabeth became a singing sensation in Famine era Ireland & broke down barriers wherever she sang.

This is Ann Glover, in 1688, she became the last person to be executed for being a witch in Boston.
It was believed by the British settlers in the area she was speaking the devils language.
In reality, Ann was only able to speak Irish.
