Petaluma's Three Crises
Historian Jeff Elliott will discuss three historic crises faced by the Petaluma community. Petaluma's conflict with the rest of Sonoma county as being the only town outspoken in opposition to the Confederacy; how the town resisted anti-Chinese bigotry after the infamous murder of the Wickershams; and how Petaluma greeted waves of refugees escaping the devastation of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake.
