This... is a familiar choice to children of abusive parents?

The piece isn't about the conflicting emotions of a slave-owner, it's about how much Tizon hates himself and how much he loves Lola.

Maybe he should have hated himself more. I don't know how to measure that.

He says that these attempts are like playing 20 questions, over the course of days and weeks.

At this point in time, most of her family is now dead. By the end of the article, he meets with her niece.

In short, the subject of a potential purely reported piece died without wishing to be interviewed, and other interviewees were also dead.

The essay from Lola's perspective that you want? It doesn't exist. It can't exist. Lola didn't want to write it.

Great thread but the idea that a story from Eudocia's perspective "can't exist" is false. Historians recover these stories all the time.

I'll take your word for it--as a reporter I know I would have considered my options exhausted. I do not know how to do a historian's work.

I hear you. Again, really appreciated the analysis. Thinking through some of the gender dynamics that I might have missed on first read.
