Runaways Advertisement, New Orleans Jail, 1845 Historical Newspaper Advertisement

Published in 1845, the Courier advertisement functions as institutional discourse that
assists in the surveillance, classification, detention, and recovery of enslaved individuals.
Through legal, economic, racial, and bureaucratic language, the notice normalizes human
ownership while presenting slavery as an ordinary administrative practice (The Courier, 1845;
Fairclough, 1992, 1995; Machin & Mayr, 2023).
