This is so well done. The interpreters are wonderful. Happy anniversary General and Mrs. Washington. Thank you for sharing ❤

What amazing people the Washington’s were! Thank you for the stream!

Loved this!

drinking game: take a shot every time this guy says "frankly"

This was excellent. But I also wanted to comment on "No Master Over Me" Electronic Field Trip, what a wonderful story of courage and perseverance! What a great man Mr. Matthew Ashby was! He was very smart to deposit his 150 pounds with a trusted white friend, if he had brought the money with him he might have been killed by his wife's master and the money stolen. Afterall, even free blacks weren't real people to the enslavers so it would be theft to them. I have always been surprised that free blacks chose to stay in the South unless their families were still enslaved. It never occurred to me that they stayed where they were because it was actually safer there if they had white men who would vouch for them. The stories the grandmother told the boys are harrowing. Free but with ever present inequality, unable to even testify for himself and the ever present danger of being kidnapped or otherwise forced back into slavery. I can't praise "No Master Over Me" high enough! Thank you for bringing these important but painful facts to our attention!
