Explore the lives of free Black Virginians from the arrival of the first captive Africans in 1619 to the abolition of slavery in 1865. Through powerful objects and first-person accounts, discover how Virginia’s people of color achieved their freedom and persevered within a legal system that recognized them as free but not equal. Un/Bound: Free Black Virginians, 1619-1865 is organized by the Virginia Museum of History & Culture.
