- Summary:
- In Invented Before You Were Born, white siblings Jonathan and Rachel Knight discover they are descendants of Kentucky slave holder Richard Bibb. Confronting this family history leads to meeting Black descendants of the people enslaved by their ancestor. Joined by African American journalist and historian Le Datta Grimes, they set off on a journey to share the stories of descendants and cousins linked by enslavement and the inheritance of Bibb's resources. Their efforts culminate in a powerful family reunion in Kentucky at the site that represents both bondage and freedom.
