Freedom Day - Part 2 | The Birth of Freedom

from Lowcountry Gullah · host Mean Ole Lion Media

History books have taught us that freedom came with the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1865, which is true for the majority of enslaved people in the US. On the sea islands, the birth of freedom came as early as 1862, in the town of Mitchelville. An incredible story of stength and independence, the formerly enslaved were able to prove that they could successfully run thier own town. Here's their amazing story.
