Listen "S242-The Devils Half Acre"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of The Median Society, host Anthony Mitchell takes us back to Richmond, Virginia’s notorious “Devil’s Half Acre.” Once a center of the domestic slave trade, it stood as both a site of suffering and resilience. We uncover the history of Lumpkin’s Jail, the lives it held captive, and how this place of pain became a cornerstone for Black education and freedom. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
