Introducing Inclusive Ancestry

by

After an extensive user-focused product development process, I am happy to launch Inclusive Ancestry, a technological revolution of digital storytelling designed to resist systems that perpetuate historic erasure. "A new free Chrome extension, Inclusive Ancestry, empowers Ancestry users to document (in their trees) their marginalized ancestors’ enslavement, unfreedom, forced migration, and internment. Japanese American internment during World War II, the regulating of Native American identity and location, and the spectrum of unfreedom that defined African American life in the antebellum era lack representation in Ancestry’s fact/event system. Inclusive Ancestry seeks to fill that gap." Learn more: https://throughthetreesblog.tumblr.com/post/813260256093372416/introducing-inclusive-ancestry
