Frankly Charleston Morning Walking Tour

Overview

TOUR REFLECT

The truthful acknowledgment of African American contributions to these United States of America since its founding, which is still in limbo or in denial compared to the racism that is wide spread throughout this country for the sake of its southern heritage, in step with keeping it a tradition? Why can’t Americans get with the time?

We break down the other Charleston and the stereo typical mind set of the institution of slavery in this country or shall I say in the Low Country Charles Towne. Were we GULLAH? Or were we AFRICANS? What was the reward for not running? How wealthy were the free People of Color?

This was such an informative tour through the “other Charleston”. Frank is a wealth of knowledge about the side of Charleston, indeed the history of this country, that many prefer to gloss over or ignore. Take this tour and remember what we, as a nation, have tried to forget. You’ll be glad you chose to spend the morning listening to the stories of the other Charleston.

My husband and I selected Frankly Charleston because we were interested in learning the stories and observing areas of Charleston that are not included by the other touring companies. To say that we learned a lot about the roles of blacks, freed and enslaved would be an understatement. We were lucky to tour with the owner, whose name is Franklin. If there was ever a walking and talking history book, it would be this gentleman. My husband and I were really impressed with the amount of information we were given. We listened to stories and saw areas of Charleston that was not provided by the other touring companies. For anyone looking to get an all inclusive (the good and the bad or the pretty and the ugly) this is the touring company for you. Sign up with Frankly Charleston. You will not be disappointed.

Franklin was absolutely superb. He was knowledgeable, interactive, considerate, patient, and most importantly, inclusive. He made each person in the tour, feel as though they were the only one on the tour. He is a wealth of knowledge and experience and made the tour feel like we were actually in, the slavery era hearing from a local commoner on what it was like to be in that era. If you are looking for an unvarnished, objective and accurate depiction of the slavery era in Charleston, this is the tour for you.
