And we the descendants are #readyforhealing
Our approach from the project perspective is to facilitate conversation with descendants and descendent communities. Our job is to listen. https://t.co/lmxD0z8cCl via @americamag

We’ve identified at least 190 enslaved people owned, rented or borrowed by Jesuits in the central and southern United States between 1823 and 1865. https://t.co/lmxD0z8cCl via @americamag

When sixteen-year-old Henrietta Mills married twenty-year-old Charles Chauvin on June 28, 1860, her marriage record labeled her as a “slave of St Louis University.” https://t.co/cKJWyRuTnk

Thank you to @mbmuse who showed us records from @gtownlibrary about the enslaved people who belonged to the Jesuits in Maryland and Missouri. Being able to see and touch records we’ve studied on the @guslavery archive was a profound experience.

The 1811 uprising is believed to be the largest slave rebellion in U.S. history. This weekend, hundreds of African Americans gathered in the streets of Louisiana to recreate the event. https://t.co/LbDmjE1010

Family Tree Makers tree sync with @Ancestry has been Orange for weeks now, saying that it’s unstable to sync the trees, is this issue going to be resolved anytime soon? Thanks

@SandraGreenTho2 @rachelswarns @Students4GU272 OK. I contributed to the memory project. legacy admissions is a benefit but I agree more needs to be done.

Nearly two centuries ago, the Jesuit priests who founded and ran what is now Georgetown University sold 272 people to keep the college afloat. Men. Women. Children. Babies. Many wept as they were loaded onto the ships. Three years ago, I told their story. https://t.co/zbRXbMLGmU
