    Over the course of more than twenty years, James D. Richardson and his wife, Lori, retraced the steps of his ancestor, George Richardson (1824–1911), across nine states, uncovering letters, diaries, and more memoirs hidden away. Their journey brought them to the brink of the racial divide in America, revealing how his great-great-grandfather Richardson played a role in the Underground Railroad, served as a chaplain to a Black Union regiment in the Civil War, and founded a college in Texas for the formerly enslaved. 
     
     
     
    In narrating this compelling life, The Abolitionist's Journal explores the weight of the past as well as the pull of one's ancestral history. The author raises questions about why this fervent commitment to the emancipation of African Americans was nearly forgotten by his family, exploring the racial attitudes in the author's upbringing and the ingrained racism that still plagues our nation today. 
     
     
     
    As America confronts a generational reckoning on race, these important perspectives add a layer to our larger national story.

    The Hanseatic League - Medieval...

    The Hanseatic League, often simply referred to as the Hansa, emerged during the late Middle Ages as a powerful and influential commercial and defensive confederation of merchant guilds and market towns in northern Europe. Its origins can be traced back to the 12th century, a time when trade across Europe was expanding, and the need for security, consistency, and cooperation among merchants became more apparent. In this period of growing urbanization and shifting political structures, the groundwork was laid for what would become one of the most successful trade networks of the medieval world. 
    Before the League formally took shape, various Germanic merchants had already been engaged in trade across the North and Baltic Seas. These early trade routes connected regions like modern-day Germany, the Netherlands, Scandinavia, and the Baltic states. Merchant groups began forming guilds—organized associations that provided mutual protection, standardized trade practices, and a collective voice in foreign cities. These early guilds were critical in shaping the cooperative ethos that would later define the Hanseatic League. 
    The political and economic environment of medieval Europe also contributed to the League's formation. The decline of centralized imperial authority, particularly in the Holy Roman Empire, left towns and cities to manage their own economic affairs. This autonomy encouraged local leaders and merchants to seek regional alliances to protect trade interests and ensure the safe passage of goods and people. At the same time, the Crusades had opened new routes and markets, boosting the importance of northern European trade centers.
