Story line
"People Not Property: Stories of Slavery in the Colonial North" is an interactive documentary presented by Historic Hudson Valley, a not-for-profit, educational organization that has been committed to telling the story of slavery in the colonial North for decades. Funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities, 25 short documentaries, reenactments, and animations mix with interactive online features to tell the history and scale of Northern slavery through the often-overlooked stories of enslaved individuals who lived and labored there. This personalized narrative of the past, told by scholars, educators, historic site interpreters, artists, and performers, connects with issues of race in America today. Designed for a broad range of viewers, from students and teachers to the general public, this content-rich educational website tells the neglected story in a fact-based yet heartfelt way. Viewers may engage at different levels and deep dive into topics by watching videos, exploring interactive documents, reading, and answering critical thinking prompts.
