520    Between Freedom and Equality begins with the life of Capt.
       George Pointer, an enslaved African who purchased his 
       freedom in 1793 while working for George Washington's 
       Potomac Company. It follows the lives of six generations 
       of his descendants as they lived and worked on the banks 
       of the Potomac, in the port of Georgetown, and in a rural 
       corner of the nation's capital. Between Freedom and 
       Equality offers a moving and inspiring look at the 
       challenges that free African Americans have faced in 
       Washington, DC, since the district's founding. The story 
       begins with an 1829 letter from Pointer that is preserved 
       today in the National Archives. Inspired by Pointer's 
       letter, authors Barbara Boyle Torrey and Clara Myrick 
       Green began researching this remarkable man who was a boat
       captain and supervisory engineer for the Potomac canal 
       system. The Pointer family faced many challenges-the 
       fragility of freedom in a slaveholding society, racism, 
       wars, floods, and epidemics-but their refuge was the small
       farm they purchased in what is now Chevy Chase. However, 
       in the early twentieth century, the DC government used 
       eminent domain to force the sale of their farm and 
       replaced it with an all-white school. Between Freedom and 
       Equality grants Pointer and his descendants their long-
       overdue place in American history.
