Race/Related: The Hidden History of Slavery That Surrounds Us

Most sites of the slave trade are unmarked, including auction sites where families were torn apart.

One hundred people were sold that day.From the American Antiquarian Society For hundreds of years, enslaved people were bought and sold in America. Today most of the sites of this trade are forgotten. As part of The 1619 Project, Anne C. Bailey, a professor of history at Binghamton University, wrote about her research into slave auctions for a New York Times Magazine article titled “[They Sold Human Beings Here](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRgPNeOP0T7aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vaW50ZXJhY3RpdmUvMjAyMC8wMi8xMi9tYWdhemluZS8xNjE5LXByb2plY3Qtc2xhdmUtYXVjdGlvbi1zaXRlcy5odG1sP3RlPTEmbmw9cmFjZS9yZWxhdGVkJmVtYz1lZGl0X3JyXzIwMjAwMjI5JmNhbXBhaWduX2lkPTM3Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTE2MzcyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MjE3NDcmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkNyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyMjAyMDAyMjlXA255dEIKACiOUlpeDxXvp1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA).” She told me that the auction block represented the end to life as enslaved people knew it. Family life was one bright spot in the long ordeal of slavery, she said, but auctions ripped families apart. Yet Dr. Bailey and her researchers found fewer than 50 marked auction sites, while by some estimates there were 1.2 million slave sales between 1760 and 1860. Sites of African-American focus represent 2 percent of those registered on the National Register of Historic Places, she told me, and only a small portion of these are devoted to slavery. Here’s more from our conversation, which has been edited and condensed: Your report allowed readers to see a slave auction from the eyes of those who were enslaved. How difficult was the research and writing? There is no central registry of these auction sites. My research assistants and I found less than 50 were marked and that was very surprising considering there were 1.2 million slave sales between 1760 and 1860. Each of those sales represented heartbreak for family members, for loved ones. Their experience and their contributions must also not be forgotten.

This know-how, cultivated on the continent for hundreds of years, is what made these rice planters among the richest men in the country on the eve of the Civil War. I like to say they were like the tech giants of their day. For the unmarked sites, there are many ways to look. We chose to look first at the slave narratives and the digitized archive of advertisements that slaves placed after the Civil War when they were looking for their relatives. In this way, we were assuming their perspective — what they recalled about where they were sold or where their loved one was sold; what fragments of information they had to go on when they were ardently searching the country for mothers, brothers, sisters, wives, husbands. Could you briefly tell us the story of one of these sites? Monday is the 161st anniversary of the Weeping Time slave auction, which took place on the eve of the Civil War. Four hundred and thirty-six men, women and children — including 30 babies — were put on the auction block in Savannah, Ga., in what became known as the largest slave sale in American history. There is a marker in what is now West Savannah near where the Ten Broeck Race Course once stood, which was the actual location of the auction. The enslaved were kept in the sheds meant for horses as they awaited sale. They endured the horror of being separated from family and loved ones as though they were sold in “family lots.” Family was narrowly defined: mother, father, children. No grandparents, no cousins, no aunts and uncles. And for those who were engaged but not married, they would be separated, perhaps permanently.

The slaves called this time “the weeping time.” I like to think that if they could do nothing else, they named their experience so that people like you and me would one day remember. Remember their hurt and their pain; but also remember their contribution. What has been the reaction to the article and your book? I am happy to see that many are just as intrigued as I have been. They are concerned about the erasure of the experience of these men, women and children. Those who have contacted me or who read the article, or my book, seem eager to do that. They don’t see this as something to be hidden away but rather as something to resurrect and recover from our history. There may be some healing there. It certainly is the case for me. I often think about the fact that we can’t do anything about the past, but it is what we do now that matters. 188 Main Street, Savannah, Georgia. MarkedDannielle Bowman for The New York Times Why does is matter so much to preserve these sites, many of which have already been built over? If in 2020, we agree that all lives matter, then all lives mattered then, too, so we should find a way to demonstrate that. One way is to democratize our landscape. At present, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center, there are over 1,800 Confederate monuments and memorials; at the same time, we have found less than 50 marked auction sites.
