"Run away from the Subscriber about 20 days ago, A Small, slender made, negro woman named Juliana Sophia, has a mark on the left ancle, and is far advanced in pregnancy. If she returns in eight days she will be forgiven; if not, she will be given over to Justice; no person must harbour her, or they must abide by the consequences of the Law. A reward of one Joe will be given to any person who will take and deliver her to REBECCA STALLARD. 3d Feb. 1804." DANSK VESTINDISK REGIERINGS AVIS, 1804-02-07, available from Mediestream.
In March 1804, Juliana Sophia ran from her enslaver in St. Croix, Danish West Indies, seeking freedom for her unborn child. Hers is one of many instances where women sought freedom for the next generation in the #Caribbean - either alone, or with their children, parents, partners, and friends.

My guest essay for @nytimes.com about Adriana Smith. This situation is a tragedy from top to bottom, and there is so much complexity that can't be teased out in so few words. May she and the family left behind find peace soon.
