Dec. 8 Discussion Explores the Lives of Africatown Descendants
Participants in the upcoming Conversations on Race series will view a CBS 60 Minutes feature on the Clotilda—the last known ship to bring enslaved Africans to the United States—and explore the experiences of their descendants in Africatown, Alabama. The story examines how families connected to the Clotilda are grappling with questions of legacy, power, and reconciliation generations later.
Descendants of Africatown, Alabama, share their stories of legacy, power, and reconciliation in "Clotilda," a CBS 60 Minutes segment being screened on December 8 in the Easton Room of the Talbot County Free Library. The free event begins at 5:30 p.m. and is part of the Talbot Family Network’s Conversations on Race series and includes a shared discussion, refreshments, and a light meal.
