For Teachers and Educators
What is the impact of telling ‘untold’ histories using primary source materials for students and teachers alike?
Discover a world of untold stories waiting to be rediscovered by exploring content from our recent exhibit Mysteries from the Deep: Exploring Underwater Archaeology. Join the Intrepid Museum for a morning of analyzing how artifacts enhance student learning, as we uncover the direct impact of underwater archaeology on our understanding of peoples and cultures today.
Hear from Jeremy Ellis, former president of the Clotilda Descendants Association, and descendent of enslaved survivors from the Clotilda, the last known slave ship to enter the United States.

Jeremy Ellis is a direct descendant of Kupollee (Pollee) and Rosalie (Rose) Allen, who were shipmates on the Clotilda – the last known slave ship to enter America. He is the founder of Justice for the 110, a coalition of committed people working towards justice and reparations for the 110 enslaved Africans brought to America aboard the slave ship Clotilda. He is the immediate past president of the Clotilda Descendants Association (CDA), whose mission is to honor their ancestors, preserve their culture, landmarks, and legacies, and educate the future generations of descendants and the community.
