Photos by @elias.williams | Juneteenth is the commemoration of the emancipation for those held as slaves in Galveston, Texas, on June 19, 1865. The Emancipation Proclamation formally freed enslaved people—almost two and a half years earlier. But Texas was the most remote of the states with enslaved people, which slowed enforcement.
In 1860, enslaved Africans arrived in Mobile, Alabama, aboard Clotilda, the last known slave ship to arrive in the United States—the result of an illegal bet, made 52 years after the international slave trade was abolished. After arrival, the ship was burned and sunk in a remote area of the Mobile River. In 1865, when slavery was abolished, Clotilda survivors had no way to return to Africa. They would go on to purchase land and found a tight-knit, self-reliant community named Africatown, where many of their descendants live today. For more than a century, the remains of the Clotilda have been a mystery. In May 2019, a team of underwater archaeologists announced that the ship was discovered. In celebration of Juneteenth, I’m highlighting the descendants of Clotilda survivors and Africatown natives—Ossa Keeby, Cudjo Lewis, Charlie Lewis, and Pollee Allen—who keep their heritage alive.
