Description: Two real-life abolitionists who fought one of the most shockingly persistent evils of the world: human trafficking and sexual exploitation of slaves. The show’s first season will tell the story of Harriet Jacobs who serves as the book’s centerpiece. Born into slavery in the early 1800s, Jacobs fought her way to freedom and became an abolitionist and the first known female slave to document the sexual harassment and abuse she faced while enslaved. The initial series is tentatively titled Edenton, after the town where Jacobs was held as a slave.
