Oh hello, good morning.
pickI enjoyed this inside view into the life of the mysterious Sally Hemings. She was kept a secret then, and she is still in the shadows of American History today. In these pages, we get a glimpse of what her life might have been like. She was Thomas Jefferson‘s misogynoir. She was an enslaved, Black woman. She was Sally Hemings.
Oh okay I see how it‘s going to be. Back and forth, back and forth, up and down through time 😑
