My Great Uncle who was a professor as well did the same. I’ve been on the land that he claims was the plantation in Alabama. For him, it was a great piece of history but for me it was one of the most sickening feelings I’ve ever had. Learning all the dark history committed me to dropping my last name at some point. Was always something I thought about doing, but that sealed it.

Yea I went to ancestry.com or something like that.
I only looked at my mom's side of the family. My mom told me the story that my great grandmother was a slave, and was raped by her slave master. She fled Florida with my grandfather, with her other children and husband, who was a product of the rape. The website confirmed everything my mom told me
I got mad and didn't even bother looking at my dad's side of the family.

All Black Americans should be able to do that. @HarlemHottie - Hey Sis, how are you?
This story reminds of of Ahmaud Arbery. He was a descendent of Bilali Muhammad of Sapelo Island, Georgia.
Bilali Mohammed was an enslaved West African on a plantation on Sapelo Island, Georgia. According to his descendant, Cornelia Bailey, in her history, God, Dr. Buzzard and The Bolito Man, Bilali was from the area of present-day Sierra Leone. He was a master cultivator of rice, a skill prized by Georgia planters.
William Brown Hodgson was among scholars who met Bilali.[3] Bilali was born in Timbo, Guinea sometime between 1760 and 1779 to a well-educated African Muslim family.[4] He was enslaved as a teenager, taken to the Bahamas and sold to Dr. Bell, where he was worked as a slave for ten years at his Middle Caicos plantation. Bell was a Loyalist colonial refugee from the American Revolutionary War who had been resettled by the Crown at Middle Caicos. He sold Bilali in 1802 to a trader who took the man to Georgia.
Bilali Mohammed was purchased by Thomas Spalding and assigned as his head driver at his plantation on Sapelo Island. Bilali could speak Arabic and had knowledge of the Qur'an. "Due to his literacy and leadership qualities, he would be appointed the manager of his master's plantation, overseeing approximately five hundred slaves".[5] In the War of 1812, Bilali and his fellow Muslims on Sapelo Island helped to defend the United States from a British attack. Upon Bilali's death in 1857, it was discovered that he had written a thirteen-page Arabic manuscript. At first, this was thought to have been his diary, but closer inspection revealed that the manuscript was a transcription of a Muslim legal treatise and part of West Africa's Muslim curriculum.
The first partial translation of the document was undertaken in 1939 by Joseph Greenberg and published in the Journal of Negro History. Since the turn of the 21st century, it has been analyzed by Ronald Judy,[6] Joseph Progler,[7] Allan D. Austin[8] and Muhammed al-Ahari.
Among the new details: the family histories of both Arbery’s killers, which include ancestors who enslaved people and fought for the Confederacy. They also uncovered Arbery’s link to one of the most well-known enslaved people in Georgia, Bilali Mohammed on Sapelo Island. Mohammed was the highly educated author of a manuscript on Islamic belief and rules discovered after his death in 1857.

Yes. There is a "slave" name that still runs in my family. The origin was the slave owners children.
Didn't find this out until like 2 years ago
Shoutout my cousin Imani in the video
VERY sad shyt when you think about it. Praise God though
Yo how is this fakkit @Mystic still banned but @King_Kamala61 not. The mods are looking funny in the light
I have free ancestors that were living in Maryland during the age of slavery. I hit a roadblock going back past them, but obviously some of my ancestors were enslaved because of the last name.
