- The morning session at the Library of Virginia began with a keynote speech by Maurie D. McInnis, Ph.D., vice provost for academic affairs and professor of art history at the University of Virginia.
On Saturday, March 21, 2015, the Library of Virginia, the Historic New Orleans Collection, and the Midlo Center for New Orleans Studies, University of New Orleans, co-hosted a one-day, two-city symposium, To Be Sold: The American Slave Trade from Virginia to New Orleans. Morning sessions were held at the Library of Virginia in Richmond, and the afternoon sessions were at the HNOC. Funding for the symposium was provided by the National Endowment for the Humanities. Kevin Heraldo, of the University of Richmond, edited the videos.

it would have been good to see the visuals rather than the speaker
I learned this in school . They don’t teach this any more! But do they ever bring the point up that there own people sold them into slavery! Or have they taught all peoples of all colors were slaves at one time or another and yet they speak as if slavery didn’t exist until it came to America.
Kay Mcgregor….it’s “their” not “there”. And for the record, the intra-African slave trade was in no way racialized like the North and South American slave trade. Your tone and the nature of your comment suggest that you are most likely white and bigoted towards black people and can’t stand the fact that America’s history is not the squeaky clean propaganda that you MAGA types would like to believe.
Don’t you learn that in school?
