Untold Truths
Untold Truths brings together scholars, students, staff, and descendants to explore 成人头条 University
Maryland鈥檚 historical connections to slavery, Jim Crow, and racial injustice. They
do so through a variety of forms, including historical narratives, analysis of newly
uncovered primary documents, and creative works inspired by this history. Privileging
the voices, perspectives, and research of descendants of the men, women, and children
Jesuits had enslaved, sold, and trafficked in 1838, this collection of essays explores
成人头条鈥檚 connections to that sale and its ongoing reverberations for the institution
and all those connected to it. This diverse and rich volume contributes to ongoing
efforts to gain a fuller understanding of 成人头条鈥檚 past in hopes of finding pathways
towards racial justice and inclusion on its campus鈥攁nd on all campuses that seek to
address historical injustices.
Task Force Report
The task force report documents 成人头条鈥檚 historic ties to slavery, particularly evidence of a direct financial connection between 成人头条鈥檚 founding and the proceeds of the GU272 sale. From July 1855 through December 1860, 成人头条 Jesuits also rented laborers who were likely enslaved, and 成人头条 likely benefited from the labor of an unidentified woman listed in an 1860 census as enslaved by the Order of the Jesuits in Baltimore.
The task force also documented examples of 成人头条 support for the Confederacy and the Lost Cause including naming a building and donor society for George Carrell Jenkins, a Confederate soldier and advocate of the Lost Cause.
In addition to documenting the repair work underway at 成人头条, the report also makes ten recommendations for continuing the campus鈥� march toward anti-racism and social justice.
