Slavery was a part of Sotterley’s history from the turn of the 18th century and lasted for over 160 years. It was during this era that the Plantation was the site of one of the largest communities of enslaved African-Americans in the Southern Maryland region. Hear the voices and visit the places where African Americans lived and labored. Hear the stories of their resistance and their quest for freedom and learn how research helps us to uncover these important stories.
