The Story Of Two Families Connected By Slavery
Manage episode 433608377 series 2289832
Searching your ancestors is popular these days. It can be exciting if your ancestors were famous or if they had some connection to a historical event. However, it can be painful if your family played a part in one of the darker periods in our history, such as slavery. We talk to a man whose family held slaves and hear how he went back in history and to his family’s hometown to confront his past, to meet the relatives of those slaves, and to find out what life was like then and now for the two Tomlinson families.
