The civil war has ended and Madison Hemings, son of Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings, and Israel Jefferson, formerly enslaved footman, return to their birthplace of Monticello in hopes of reuniting with Israel’s long-lost brother. On their journey the men consider many questions – including the most difficult one – how do they feel about the man who wrote “all men are created equal" while owning enslaved people?
