How a Grad Student Uncovered the Largest Known Slave Auction in the U.S.

This was disgusting and powerful to read. These types of details about the enslavement of a race not so many generations ago really paint a picture of the persecution of Black people in America. I had never heard of Sugar House or work houses in general. The treatment of trafficked black people is horrifying and to think how much retribution has happened in Germany after the holocaust compared how little has been done in the US is a disgrace.

You are deserving of love, understanding, and compassion, and I hope that you find solace in knowing that your experiences matter and are valid. Keep holding on, for brighter days await you, and you have already proven your strength by enduring this far.
