As a young White girl in Ohio, Rachel Jamison had imagined what life was like for her pioneer ancestors and peppered her grandparents with questions about her past. Decades later, she and her family discovered a connection to a prominent early American Black intellectual and met their living Black relatives. The full story of her past had been hiding in plain sight.
