The Slave Dwelling Project with Joe McGill

Listen to Joe McGill, founder of the Slave Dwelling Project, as he speaks on his experiences in telling the stories of the enslaved and sleeping at former sites of enslaved people. McGill is an educator, Civil War reenactor, and descendent of enslaved people who has conducted programs about the life and memories of slaves in 23 states on one hundred-fifty sites. McGill’s work focuses on changing the narrative, one slave dwelling at a time as he attempts to spend the night in every former slave dwelling still standing in the United States.
