I found this website which has links to bills of sale & logs of enslaved Black people who were traded by the Jesuits in Georgetown. If your ancestor(s) were enslaved in DC, Maryland, or Louisiana, then you may be able to find them on the site below. Needless to say, this already valuable information will be vital if lineage-based reparations are approved in your state.
I hope this helps some of you!

do y’all use a dipping sauce for blue crabs?

It seems like it’s a hyper regional thing. Where I grew up in northern neck Virginia, everyone uses a mix of ketchup, vinegar & hot sauce

Sometimes I use that ketchup/mayo mix, but mostly just plain
