Tracing Racism through Genealogy In-Person

Orice Jenkins is a recording artist, performer, educator, and genealogy researcher from East Hartford, Connecticut. He ties his passions together in his lectures and historical presentations, commenting on the relationships between racism, culture, art, and family. In his presentation, Jenkins will look at the life of Albert Terrell, a man who was enslaved for 50 years on four different plantations in Georgia. Through the use of DNA research, Jenkins will share how he unlocked clues that showed what Albert and his family endured in these forced labor camps.
