In 1838, the top Catholic university in the U.S. needed money. 2 of the school's early presidents, both Jesuit priests, organized a slave sale — worth about $3.3 million in today’s dollars. To help secure the future of what is now @georgetownuniversity, the school sold 272 enslaved African-Americans to plantations in the Deep South. Their fate would be mostly forgotten for more than a century. But now, with racial protests roiling college campuses, an unusual collection of @georgetownuniversity professors, students, alumni and genealogists is trying to find out what happened to those 272 men, women and children. In the process, they’re confronting a particularly wrenching question: What, if anything, is owed to the descendants? @misterwidmer photographed the grave of Cornelius Hawkins, one of the slaves who was sold, at Immaculate Heart of Mary cemetery in Maringouin, Louisiana.
