In 1850s South Carolina, an enslaved woman named Rose faced a crisis: the imminent sale of her daughter Ashley.

Decades later, Ashley's granddaughter Ruth embroidered this family history on the sack in spare, haunting language. Historian Tiya Miles carefully traces these women's faint presence in archival records, and, where archives fall short, she turns to objects, art, and the environment to write a singular history of the experience of slavery.
