Whitney Plantation is a space dedicated to truth-telling about America’s past. Here, you’ll learn about the West Africans who built this plantation, cleared the land, and maintained its success through their forced labor. From managing the flow of the Mississippi River by constructing levees, to cultivating rice, indigo, and sugarcane, over 350 enslaved people were the foundation of the plantation’s economy. We invite you to visit and learn. #SlaveryHistory #AmericanHistory #GermanCoast #Louisia

The Field of Angels is a memorial dedicated to 2,200 enslaved children who died in St. John the Baptist Parish between the 1820s and the 1860s. Their deaths were documented in the Sacramental Records of the Archdiocese of New Orleans. Their names are engraved on granite slabs along with WPA slave narrative quotes which describe the daily lives of enslaved children in the South. Death rates on Louisiana’s cane plantations were relatively high compared to cotton or tobacco plantations. Many of the

People were asking about the Whitney Plantation after my last video, so I wanted to share this again. —— Visiting the @whitneyplantation in Louisiana was one of the most poignant experiences I’ve ever been a part of. While most plantation tours want to focus on antebellum architecture or the life of the family, the Whitney Plantation curates a journey through the realities of slavery without shying away from the brutalities, violence, and legacy.
