About this event

Join us for our Facebook Live Series, Telling the Story of Slavery, to explore and discuss the stories of enslaved African Americans at the historical sites of Cragfont, Wynnewood, and Hawthorn Hill.

In this installment, we will share and discuss documents concerning the enslaved experience at Cragfont with death and disease. We'll also explore how enslaved individuals sometimes used illness and infirmity as a form of resistance.
