Hi, I would like to join the project.
I have done a little work in the project and am planning on this month's challenge.
I have spent the last day reading through the project information.
The effort of the "Heritage Exchange Portal" is awesome.
I do have two suggestions.
One - A Project "Road Map" diagram to show the links that should be visited to learn about the project would be helpful. It took me quite a while to find the "Documenting Enslaved People in WikiTree" page.
Two - I find the "is part of the Black Heritage Project" symbol on the profiles of Slave Holders to be confusing. It is not clear if the slave holder is black or white, or other.
My suggestion would be to have a separate symbol for slave owners. It would be something like, "Name" was a slave owner. Slaves owned by "Name" are listed in this profile with sources. Each named slave is linked to his/her profile as part of the Black History Project.
I would suggest a different symbol as it sends the message that the person in the profile is black.
Ideas for another symbol - - good question - How about double the current symbol but half the size. A white man and woman would be at the top and the current symbol below. This would clearly associate the symbol with the Project Symbol.
