Whereas this resolution may be cited as the ‘‘Original Slavery Remembrance Day Resolution of 2021’’; Whereas the House of Representatives recognizes August 20, 2021, as ‘‘Slavery Remembrance Day’’ and commemo- rates the lives of all enslaved people while also con- demning the act and perpetuation of slavery in the United States of America and across the world; Whereas we posthumously recognize the following Members of Congress, who served during and after the Reconstruc- tion era, as honorary cosponsors of this resolution: the Honorable Joseph Hayne Rainey (SC–01), Member of Congress from 1870 to 1879, Jefferson Franklin Long (GA–04), Member of Congress from January 1871 to March 1871, Robert Carlos De Large (SC–02), Member of Congress from 1871 to 1873, Robert Brown Elliott (SC–3), Member of Congress from 1871 to 1874, Ben- jamin Sterling Turner (AL–01), Member of Congress from 1871 to 1873, Josiah Thomas Walls (FL-At Large), Member of Congress from 1871 to 1876, Alanzo Jacob Ransier (SC–02), Member of Congress from 1873 to 1875, Richard Harvey Cain (SC-At Large), Member of Congress from 1873 to 1875 and 1877 to 1879, John Roy Lynch (MS–06), Member of Congress from 1873 to Exhibit 3 2 •HRES 517 EH 1877 and 1882 to 1883, James Thomas Rapier (AL–02), Member of Congress from 1873 to 1875, Jeremiah Haralson (AL–01), Member of Congress from 1875 to 1877, John Adams Hyman (NC–02), Member of Con- gress from 1875 to 1877, Roberts Smalls (SC–07), Mem- ber of Congress from 1875 to 1879 and 1882 to 1883 and 1884 to 1887, James Edward O’hara (NC–02), Member of Congress from 1883 to 1887, Herney Plum- mer Cheatham (NC–02), Member of Congress from 1889 to 1893, John Mercer Langston (VA–04), Member of Congress from 1890 to 1891, Thomas Ezekiel Miller, Member of Congress from 1890 to 1891, George Wash- ington Murray (SC–01), Member of Congress from 1893 to 1895 and 1896 to 1897, and George Henry White (NC–02), Member of Congress from 1897 to 1901; Whereas, on August 20, 1619, the first 20 enslaved Africans were brought to what is now Fort Monroe, then Point Comfort, in Hampton, Virginia against their will; Whereas the House of Representatives recognizes August 20, 2021, as ‘‘Slavery Remembrance Day’’ and commemo- rates the lives of all enslaved people while also con- demning the act and perpetuation of slavery in the United States of America and across the world; Whereas African tribal chiefs captured, enslaved, and sold their captives to transatlantic slave traders; Whereas, over the period of the Atlantic slave trade, from ap- proximately 1526 to 1867, millions of humans were ab- ducted and shipped from Africa, and 10,700,000 arrived in the Americas as personal property; Whereas the majority of enslaved Africans brought to British North America arrived between 1720 and 1780; Exhibit 3 3 •HRES 517 EH Whereas about 6 percent of African captives were sent di- rectly to British North America; Whereas, by 1825, the population of the United States in- cluded about one quarter of the people of African descent in what has been called the New World; Whereas the Middle Passage from West Africa to the West Indies was dangerous and horrific for enslaved people; Whereas the Middle Passage carried mothers, fathers, chil- dren, sisters, brothers, aunts, uncles, cousins, and indi- viduals from all walks of life to slavery in the Americas; Whereas, although the sexes were separated, men, women, and children were kept naked, packed close together, and the men were chained for long periods; Whereas, according to some historians, about 12 percent of those who embarked did not survive the voyage; Whereas sharks followed the slave ships to feed on bodies of slaves thrown overboard; Whereas enslaved people suffered a variety of miserable and often fatal maladies due to the Atlantic slave trade, and to inhumane living and working conditions; Whereas infant and child mortality rates were twice as high among slave children as among Southern White children; Whereas enslaved people often worked from before sunup to after sundown, 6 to 7 days a week often without food for long periods of time; Whereas enslaved Black families lived with the perpetual pos- sibility of separation caused by the sale of one or more family members; Whereas it is estimated that approximately one third of enslaved children in the upper South States of Maryland Exhibit 3 4 •HRES 517 EH and Virginia experienced family separation in one of three possible scenarios: sale away from parents, sale with mother away from father, or sale of mother or fa- ther away from child; Whereas Nat Turner was born into slavery in Southampton County, Virginia, in 1800; Whereas Southampton County was home to many planta- tions, and enslaved people outnumbered free Whites; Whereas Turner learned to read and write at a young age, becoming deeply religious; Whereas Turner was sold to several different masters over the course of his life, the last time in 1830; Whereas Turner preached to his fellow enslaved people, devel- oping a loyal following; Whereas Turner began planning a revolt with a few trusted fellow enslaved men from neighboring plantations; Whereas Turner’s rebellion began in August 1831, quickly growing from a small handful of enslaved individuals to more than 70 enslaved and free Blacks; Whereas the rebels went from house to house in South- ampton County, freeing enslaved people; Whereas the rebels were ultimately defeated by a State mili- tia that had over twice the manpower of the rebels, with three artillery companies reinforcing it; Whereas Turner was captured 6 weeks after the rebellion was put down, whereupon he was promptly convicted and sen- tenced to death; Whereas, in retaliation for the uprising, Virginia officially ex- ecuted 56 Black people, with at least 100 more killed by militias through extrajudicial violence; Exhibit 3 5 •HRES 517 EH Whereas the rebellion caused widespread panic among slaveholders throughout the South, resulting in wide- spread violence against enslaved people; Whereas, in the wake of the rebellion, the Virginia General Assembly passed legislation making it illegal to teach enslaved or free Blacks to read and write; Whereas the Underground Railroad was a network of individ- uals who helped around 100,000 slaves escape North; Whereas the railroad began when a ‘‘conductor’’ often posing as a slave would enter a plantation and attempt to guide runaways; Whereas escapees would travel 10 to 20 miles each night be- tween safe houses or ‘‘stations’’ to avoid detection, wait- ing in safe houses for the next along the line to be alert- ed to their presence; Whereas individuals running each station, many of whom were White, knew only of local efforts and not the entire operation; Whereas Harriet Tubman, born Araminta Ross, lived as an enslaved person through her young life where she en- dured regular whippings and suffered a traumatic head injury at the hands of an overseer, causing her narco- leptic episodes and migraines throughout her life;
