ASALH The Vice President’s Black Wife (virtual)
About this event
Join ASALH for a conversation with Amrita Chakrabarti Myers about the interconnectedness of sex, gender, class, and economics during the antebellum period. Myers has recovered the riveting, troubling, and complicated story of Julia Ann Chinn (ca. 1796–1833), the enslaved wife of Richard M. Johnson, and US vice president under Martin Van Buren.
