Join Kinfolkology in its first community event in Richmond, VA on May 5! They invite you to think and create with them for a conversation around data stewardship, Black genealogy, ancestral memory, and reparations for slavery. eventbrite.com/e/kinfolkology…

I had the privilege of listening to this conversation in person, but I just watched the whole thing again here. So much wisdom and so much to think about. Thank you again to everyone who made this happen. Keynote Conversation for Who Owns Black Data? youtube.com/live/Y2eomzSkx…

I think I read something somewhere comparing the archive to water to make a point about objectivity. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? I’m hoping to cite it. It is also possible that I’m the source of this metaphor and am thus worried about plagiarizing…myself.

Welcome to the bird app, Darron!!

We can't wait to talk about Kinfolkology's work and invaluable archive. You can catch the live stream - and join the convo - at youtube.com/live/Wz1unTF03… #chattelslavery #transatlanticslavetrade #blackgenealogy #blackancestry

Registration is open for our 9/22/24 Kinfolkology x Community workshop in #RVA! Register through the link at our website Kinfoklology.org.

Happening at 1 pm EST today! IAAM CFH Jennie K. Williams

We are sharing previews of conversations we look forward to having @ #KinfolkologyxComnunityRVA. Here is the 1st: a conversation about data stewardship/consent inspired by the efforts of a formerly enslaved woman named Celia Gaines to find her family. kinfolkologyxcommunity.org/celia-gaines

As a little girl, Delia Garlic was separated from her family & sold. Decades later—long after the Civil War—a strange white woman showed up at her door in Montgomery asking a host of dumb questions. [This is preview 2/6 of #KinfolkologyxCommunityRVA.] kinfolkologyxcommunity.org/delia-garlic

In 1825, Burwell Lee was found guilty of burglary in Caroline County, VA. His sentence? Being sold as a “slave” to a professional human trafficker. Reparations are owed. Let’s talk about it. [This is preview 3/6 of # KinfolkologyxComnunityRVA.] kinfolkologyxcommunity.org/burwell-lee

Most people trafficked in the antebellum interregional trade came from families that had been enslaved in the Upper South for generations: American ancestries that predated the nation itself. [This is preview 4/5 of #KinfolkologyxComnunityRVA.] kinfolkologyxcommunity.org/charles-moody

After the Civil War, thousands of African Americans left where they had been enslaved behind and founded new “freedom colonies.” Others made a different decision: to stay and fight for freedom where they were. [Preview 5/6 of #KinfolkologyxComnunityRVA.] kinfolkologyxcommunity.org/battle-payne
