SUMMARY:Webinar - In Conversation with Joseph Roby: Discussing The Enslaved at Oakley and Beyond Project [11 Feb 2026]
DESCRIPTION:Researching enslaved individuals is often challenging\, particularly when records name the enslaved only indirectly or not at all. In many cases\, locating and thoroughly analyzing records created by enslavers is the key to identifying and tracing African American lives across time. The Enslaved at Oakley & Beyond Project demonstrates how careful\, contextual research into enslavers and their families can illuminate the lives of those they enslaved—and how responsibly locating\, analyzing\, and sharing these records is essential to that work. \nThis program will depart from a traditional webinar format and take the form of a moderated conversation with Joseph Roby (The Enslaved at Oakley & Beyond Project)\, Kelley Conner Lear\, CG®\, and Dr. Shelley Viola Murphy. Together\, they’ll discuss methodology\, interpretation\, and ethical considerations in this type of research. Time will be reserved at the end of the session for audience questions. \nRegister at https://tinyurl.com/VGSFeb2026
