In this episode of Untold Histories of the Atlantic World, my colleague, Jocelyn Ortiz joins me to discuss a project called “Escaping Slavery, Building Diverse Communities.” This was a collaborative digital history project involving Georgetown University students enrolled in the course titled “Finding D.C. Civil War Sites” taught by Professor Chandra Manning and in cooperation with the National Parks Service and the Organization of American Historians. Together, we produced a digital story map that intends to document the meaning of emancipation to newly freedmen and women, how they changed the nation’s capital, and refined its core principles.
