Pushkin+ Only
The Last Archive
In this week's bonus episode for Pushkin+ subscribers, Jill Lepore talks to Judith Giesberg, co-founder of the Last Seen project, an archive of newspaper ads taken out by formerly enslaved people looking for their loved ones after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued. As a reminder: this episode is part of a limited run series of subscriber-only content. The third season of The Last Archive will be out in late fall, and will be free and available wherever you listen to podcasts. Stay tuned!
