Amistad

Mystic, CT  2020

The Freedom Schooner Amistad was built at Mystic Seaport and is currently undergoing some repairs.  The ship is normally berthed in New Haven and is a replica of the schooner, La Amistad, upon which there was a slave revolt in 1839, dramatized in the 1997 Steve Speilberg movie Amistad.
