  1. I have a book coming out about a formerly enslaved woman who won a rare restitution suit in 1878. Her son, born enslaved, died in 1951. I met his great-granddaughter, who knew him as a child in Chicago, before she died last year. Slavery is not the distant past. @nhannahjones/1104078672716353537
