Lucia “Cinder” Stanton is Monticello’s Shannon Senior Historian. She is recognized as the leading interpreter of Jefferson’s life as a planter and master of the lives of his slaves and their descendants.
In dozens of articles and four books, Cinder has addressed an astonishing array of subjects, from the Enlightenment, the French Revolution and the history of science to harpsichords, domestic servitude, wine, currency, travel, conversation, dogs, botany and sheep.
Cinder is probably best known, however, for her groundbreaking research and publications on the Monticello plantation and its people, which she has studied for decades. Serious scholarship on this topic begins with her work. Peter Onuf, the Thomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation Professor of History at the University of Virginia, says, “Cinder Stanton has made indispensable contributions to Jefferson studies. Her work on Monticello slaves has transformed the way we think about life on the mountaintop—and therefore about Jefferson himself.”
“Those Who Labor for My Happiness”: Slavery at Monticello and Free Some Day: The African-American Families of Monticello (2000) are perfect examples of her scholarship. They reflect Cinder’s deep understanding of the historical record, and they contain some of the most eloquent writing on the topic.
Cinder’s methodical 20-year study of Jefferson’s financial records has made her the eminent authority on Jefferson’s personal life. With James A. Bear, Monticello’s former Resident Director (1971-1984), she edited and annotated Jefferson’s vast Memorandum Books, thus making available 1,419 pages with thousands of entries describing Jefferson’s expenditures—from the gloves he purchased on July 4, 1776, to books, food, furniture, horses, what he gave to charity, and his last recorded purchase (for cheese, on June 13, 1826). The Memorandum Books describe virtually every business transaction he made. Published as part of The Papers of Thomas Jefferson (1997) by Princeton University Press, these two weighty volumes are invaluable for the study of the operation of the Monticello plantation, the furnishing of the house, and much more. The Memorandum Books enable any reader to make sense of Jefferson’s purchases and the daily life he led.
Virtually every major Monticello initiative has been enriched by Cinder’s remarkable knowledge of the many sources of information about Monticello and by her acute insight resulting from more than 30 years of study. After studying American history at Harvard, she arrived at Monticello in 1968, took some time away, and returned full-time in 1979. Since then, Cinder’s research and writing have inspired and helped to shape a constellation of efforts, including a stellar exhibition at the first Monticello Visitor Center, which opened in 1985. She helped launch the popular Plantation Community tours in 1993 and the Plantation Database, an index of 600 enslaved people. With curators, historians and archaeologists, she has actively participated in the interpretation of the Monticello dependencies and Mulberry Row. Curator Elizabeth Chew reports that Cinder’s voice was essential in shaping the Slavery at Jefferson’s Monticello exhibition, which will open in January at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture.
In 1993, Cinder started Getting Word, a continuing oral history project that has gathered the recollections of 170 descendants of Monticello’s enslaved families. These interviews, supplemented by research and photographs, create a vital connection to the history of an important group of Monticello’s people, whose descendants ultimately fulfilled Jefferson’s vision for equality and freedom. Their stories will be featured in the Slavery at Jefferson’s Monticello exhibition in Washington, D.C. as well as a searchable database and website.
“Cinder’s research has helped to shape our understanding of Thomas Jefferson. Her work is truly a gift to Jefferson scholarship and has created a lasting legacy for generations to come,” said Leslie Greene Bowman, president and CEO of the Thomas Jefferson Foundation at Monticello.
The impact of Cinder’s research extends beyond Monticello; it is immensely important to historians everywhere.
Authors of books and articles published about Jefferson, including Pulitzer Prize winner Annette Gordon-Reed in The Hemingses of Monticello, credit Cinder’s guidance. Cinder’s soft-spoken, unassuming and articulate manner has made her a favorite of conference organizers, documentary filmmakers and the media.

When I watched the video I expected to see Lucia Stanton and I didn't. I only saw the curator, Elizabeth Chew, and because of the importance of Lucia Stanton's work I decided to inform the viewers where to find additional information, such as Stanton's recent book, Those Who Labor for My Happiness. Which I highly recommend.

I expect Stanton would object to the application of the simplistic "duality" label to Jefferson.

REAL AMERICAN HISTORY...……
As an infant, Sally came to Monticello as part of Martha’s inheritance of her father’s slave holdings.
In 1787, Hemings, who was 14-years-old at the time, accompanied Jefferson’s youngest daughter Mary to Paris.
There, Jefferson was serving as the United States minister to France for two years.
It is believed that it was either in France or soon after that the two began to partake in a s*xual relationship.
Hemings, still a slave, began having his children......In total, she would give birth to a total of six children.
Even though he still firmly denied being in a romantic relationship with Hemings, it has been established that Thomas Jefferson
eventually freed all of her children.
The girls, Beverly and Harriet, were allowed to leave Monticello in 1822; Madison and Eston were released in 1826.
However, Jefferson did not grant freedom to any other nuclear slave family.
Sally was permitted to leave after Jefferson’s death and was released by his daughter Martha.

As we learned earlier in the year, history is usually written by the victors. This reason is why very important parts of history have been excluded from history books worldwide. Countries don’t want their young students to be constantly reminded of their mistakes, so they make sure that there isn’t much detail about those instances in the books that they use to teach.
The United States of America is guilty of doing this to escape further persecution about the atrocities of slavery, segregation, and other mistakes. For example, most U.S. history books don’t tell us the full story behind Thomas Jefferson. They tell us that he was an avid advocate of the abolition of slavery, but they choose to leave out that he actually owned some slaves himself. He also believed in repatriation, or sending slaves of color back to their own countries. He was convinced that white Americans and black slaves “constituted two ‘separate nations’ who could not live together peacefully in the same country.” I’m not trying to imply that Thomas Jefferson was a bad man, but I want to make sure that people know both sides of his story before they make their judgments on his character. He still played an integral role in the abolition of the transatlantic slave trade and paved the way for a lot of beneficial legislation for people of color.

As we learned earlier in the year, history is usually written by the victors. robert powell what loser gets to tell their story? If by chance you are thinking about The Black People in America, think again. Our great history has been in front of us, all the time, all we have to do is listen to diligently unto Elohim's voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth:
No European did not speak those works and you know it to be true. That was a covenant between The Most High "ELOHIM" and his people in The Torah.
Now that you know the truth, you still have a decision to make, now don't you?

But, I know that that n IGGA was a SINGULARILY Racistly Ignorant torturer...………..!
ps
The archeological work at Monticello eventually led them to the South Wing where they continued to excavate an area.
Here they found a space that had two heated rooms , one for Sally Hemings .
Sally Hemings room had no windows and would have been dark and damp.
“Surely .....her children have been born in this room”
(The other room could have been the tortureRape den of another male/female slave...)
The fact that her living space was not preserved, and that the wing was eventually turned into a bathroom of all things
was seen by some historians as a sign of disrespect.
