Join us in person, or virtually, to hear Karin Wulf speak on her newest book Lineage: Genealogy and the Power of Connection in Early America. Genealogy is everywhere– online, on screens, and through organizations and conferences and more. But technologies aside, genealogy was everywhere in the 18th century, too. I’ve written a book about that, about how meaningful genealogy was for diverse early Americans, in part because genealogy was foundational in law, politics, and religion and for plenty of purposes--including slavery.
