Lucy Worsley explores the harrowing case of Cloe, a black enslaved teenager in early 19th-century Pennsylvania who drowns two young girls from her enslavers’ family. Cloe is worked to the bone and constantly beaten. Were her actions those of a cold-blooded killer or an act of desperate resistance against oppression? And are black women still treated unfairly by the American justice system?
