Frances Duff's Jamaican Inheritance

from Noble Blood Hosted by iHeartPodcasts and Grim & Mild

When Frances was a child, her mother went before the Assembly to petition that she be legally classified as "white." Frances would go on to become a wealthy heiress, and marry into the British aristocracy, but the cost would be engaging with the very system of slavery and discrimination that subjugated her mother and generations of mixed-race people after her.
