Franklin, our very, very knowledgeable tour guide has studied and researched the true history of Charleston. To start the tour he carefully explained who, where, when and why events occurred. The first being the indigenous Native Americans whose land we toured. ( I personally never thought about who were the original inhabitants of South Carolina). This was only the start of the history of Charleston! I’ve been left with so many things to think about since this tour. Some are pleasant thoughts and others thoughts are not pleasant but need to be said. History does repeat itself so thinking about the importance of not repeating mistakes is critical in today’s world. Yes forms of taking others land (indigenous people’s were taken)and holding people in bondage ( restricting people to poverty economically ) is happening today in our world! What can I do!

This was the perfect way to begin our time in Charleston. As a result of this incredibly informative tour, we saw the city with a different perspective than we otherwise would have. Mr. Frank and his beautiful wife Sylvia went above and beyond to answer any questions we had. It was a treat to experience their encyclopedic knowledge of Charleston. As they say, unless you know your history, you are doomed to repeat it. This tour grapples with some difficult and sobering history that must be acknowledged.
