Bonus Episode: A Life In Slavery

Here is a short episode separate from the Lincoln series. This is meant to return to the issue of slavery itself, not as an abstraction but as the lived experience of nine million Americans by 1860. Most lived on plantations, and their lives were constrained in a way that few can understand or imagine today. This is a public episode.
