This article was created to reach the audience of the National Park Service of St. Louis and address the history of slavery in St. Louis. This article can teach about the history of slave trading in St. Louis while communicating that for many years the lives of enslaved victims in Benard Lynch\u2019s \u201cSlave Pen\u201d went silenced until Missouri State Representatives felt a calling to repair injustice by holding a memorial for the enslaved victims in 2021. What surprised me most about this article was that it didn\u2019t elaborate more upon the \u201cLast Sale of Slaves\u201d painting that Thomas Satterwhite Noble painted in 1865 and what all the illustration depicted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
