When she found out she was about to be ”gifted,” enslaved servant, #OnaJudge, made a dangerous escape from President Washington’s residence. The National Park Service has erased her story—and that of #slavery itself. Read Prof. Welbeck’s powerful essay: theconversation.com/martha-washi...
Nice zine about #OnaJudge and the #PresidentsHouse site at Independence National Historical Park.

I created this #zine about #OnaJudge. The Trump admin instructed NPS employees to remove exhibits at Independence National Historical Park related to slaves owned by Pres. Washington, who went to great lengths to keep his slaves as property, circumventing PA law.

A majority of the signers of the Declaration and nearly half of delegates to the Constitutional Convention enslaved people. 4 of the first 5 presidents were enslavers. The is the truth, but 250 years later there are some snowflakes that can't handle it.

Progress on the Ona Judge Mural: today, artist Manuel Ramirez came and installed the panels for the upcoming mural on our building. The artist sketch becoming a reality grows closer by the day...stay tuned for a time lapse video!

On this day in history in 1796, Ona Judge escaped to freedom.
Ona was one of the slaves that George Washington took with him to Philadelphia while he served as President of the United States.
