A new exhibit at Monticello, Thomas Jefferson’s palatial mountaintop plantation, is presented as the living quarters of Sally Hemings, an enslaved woman who bore the founding father’s children. It’s the culmination of a 25-year effort to grapple with the reality of slavery in the home of one of liberty’s most eloquent champions. The public opening deals a final blow to 2 centuries of ignoring, playing down or covering up what amounted to an open secret during Jefferson’s life: his relationship with a slave that spanned nearly 4 decades, from his time abroad in Paris to his death. The “Life of Sally Hemings” exhibit is perhaps the most striking example of the sea change that has taken place at @tjmonticello, as the foundation has increasingly focused on highlighting the stories of Monticello’s slaves. A multiyear, $35 million project aims to restore Monticello — which attracts 400,000 tourists a year — to the way it looked when Jefferson was alive. The foundation also rebuilt a slave cabin and workshops where slaves labored, and has hosted reunions there for the descendants of the enslaved population. @gdemczuk took this photo of a recreation of Sally Hemings' outfit at #Monticello. (No portraits or photographs exist of Sally Hemings, so curators opted not to create a physical image of her.) Visit the link in our profile to read more.
