About this listen

In each episode, I call the name of one enslaved woman

and read her offense and punishment exactly as it was recorded.

Our focus is the woman, not the spectacle of enslavement.

We sit with her line in the archive to honor her memory,

to insist that she existed, and to remember that she endured a system

designed to break her.
