@julietteamie: People were getting photos outside of the house smiling and to me that felt off. Please let me know if I’m overthinking this, I just felt incredibly torn about this day and even posting this video. I think it’s important that we educate ourselves but equally I want to remain respectful to this incredibly sad, sensitive past.

If you go to Louisiana, PLEASE visit the Whitney plantation! It’s one of the only plantations that centers the experience of those enslaved-rather than the “beauty” of the homes/info abt home owners

I lived in Charleston a few years ago. I think having weddings or other events at plantations is highly unethical but visiting for educational purposes can definitely be a good thing.

England fully participated in the slave trade. Are you really not taught that?

You made a wise choice .Taking in the amazing beauty of the architecture of Charleston without understanding the southern history behind it would be an incomplete education.

Yes absolutely definitely go these places have those awkward conversations, feel the heaviness of history. The US is a constant struggle with itself and not all good times as these places remind us

Boone hall is definitely the one to go to learn the real truth. It’s not sugar coated

So glad to hear that you went and understood it wasn’t all about the house but the history of what happened there…Loved the Gullah presentation too…As an African American, it was mixed emotions 💜

Monticello is another home of the era where they're working to try to tell a more complete history. It's not perfect, but they've been actively working to improve for the last decade or two.

As a born and raised Carolinian, thank you for taking the time to visit and learn about our unfortunate, ugly history. You’ve done so with respect and grace. 💛

Yes, it’s not something that people should be smiling about. The architecture of the homes and the beauty of the land IS remarkable. But, the truth about what happened there is brutal, horrific.

I don’t think visiting for educational purposes is a bad thing. We need to learn about our past in order to learn from it, and not repeat the same mistakes.

This part of history is only lightly taught here, too, and is being erased as we speak

We have to learn about history (the good/bad) because it should be teaching us how to NOT repeat mistakes/actions from the past. ♥️💙♥️

If you’re ever in Memphis TN, I would highly recommend the civil rights museum. One of if not the most impactful museum I’ve visited. It starts with the Atlantic slave trade and routes you up to the

It’s an historical fact, a very deeply unnerving part of our history, of our beautiful South’s history, it nearly destroyed, and there could BE no US today, had the North and human decency not won the

Yes, you have to understand. Take perspective of the humanity and inhumanity.

using your ethical reasoning, are you suggesting that when I visit England I should stay away from the castles and cathedrals?

You act like Britain didn't have slaves. No one is glorifying anything, these are beautiful homes.
