About this event

Join us for our Facebook Live series, Telling the Story of Slavery: Sold Down the River on February 7th at 12 PM CST.

In this installment, we will explore and discuss the Domestic Slave Trade and how enslaved people were transported from the Upper South to slave markets in Natchez and New Orleans. Primary resources like letters and receipts demonstrate how Alfred Wynne and his business partners transported human cargo from one location to another to be sold.
