Rising Voices: niedostatecznie reprezentowana historia (przez Walk With Me Savannah Tours)

Przegląd
Walk With Me Savannah Tours presents 'Rising Voices', a Savannah history tour exclusively featuring underrepresented narratives and figures.

Historically too many narratives have been minimized or just left out of society's carefully crafted histories. Take a walking tour where we instead exclusively highlight those underrepresented voices.

We will focus on the lives and accomplishments of black, native, queer, and female residents of Savannah and how they impacted the world around them, in such a way that Savannah as it stands would not exist without each and every one of them.

Tours start in Franklin Square and conclude in Monterey Square.

Czego oczekiwać
1
Plac Franklina
Na Franklin Square omówimy, jak Haiti zgłosiło się na ochotnika podczas rewolucji amerykańskiej, tajne szkoły działające w Savannah, które uczyły czytania i pisania czarnych uczniów, podczas gdy taka edukacja była zakazana, Pierwszy Afrykański Kościół Baptystów, w którym mieści się najstarsza kongregacja afrykańskich baptystów w kraju, oraz swoją rolę w Kolei Podziemnej.
2
Rynek miejski
Przechodząc przez City Market, zobaczymy Club One, domowe miejsce występów Lady Chablis, ikony LGBTQ z Savannah. Zobaczymy również budynek, w którym znajdował się jeden z najbardziej aktywnych rynków sprzedaży ludzi jako własność, który po emancypacji został natychmiast przekształcony w szkołę wyzwoleńców przez niektórych ludzi, którzy sprzedawali się w środku jako własność.
3
Akademia Telfair
Zatrzymamy się przed Akademią Telfair i porozmawiamy o Mary Telfair, kobiecie, która przeciwstawiła się oczekiwaniom stawianym jej przez role płciowe w tamtym czasie i zapoczątkowała dziedzictwo ochrony przyrody w Savannah.
4
Plac Wrighta
Tutaj omówimy wpływ dwóch kluczowych tubylczych postaci w historii Savannah: Tomochichi, wodza i założyciela rodzimego plemienia Yamacraw oraz Coosaponakeesa (AKA Mary Musgrove), kobiety z Creek. Obaj odegrali równie kluczową rolę w kształtowaniu Savannah, jak Oglethorpe, który jest uważany za założyciela.
5
Miejsce urodzenia Juliette Gordon Low
Tutaj omówimy Juliette Gordon Low, założycielkę harcerek, a także inne niekonwencjonalne członkinie rodziny i ich wpływ na role, które kobiety będą pełnić w przyszłości, a także poruszymy problem utraty słuchu Julliette.
6
Plac Chippewa
Tutaj pokrótce omówimy pierwotne miejsce Kościoła Katolickiego Savannah, założonego przez omówioną wcześniej społeczność haitańską. Rozmawiamy również o Susie King Taylor, samowolnej kobiecie, która służyła jako pielęgniarka i nauczycielka podczas wojny secesyjnej, opublikowała wspomnienia i otworzyła szkołę dla czarnych dzieci tuż przy Chippewa Square.
7
Plac Madisona
Tutaj zatrzymamy się przed domem Green-Meldrim i omówimy Rozkaz Polowy 15, wydany przez generała Shermana, ale utworzony i wynegocjowany przez grupę 20 czarnych pastorów i przywódców społeczności kierowanych przez Garrisona Fraziera, jak to było narodziny praktycznego zadośćuczynienia wysiłki i dlaczego uniemożliwiono jego realizację.
8
Plac Monterey
Tutaj omówimy Jima Williamsa, znanego z filmu O północy w ogrodzie dobra i zła, ale wybitnego geja z Savannah, który również zapoczątkował cały ruch restauracyjny w Savannah. Zobaczymy także pomnik hrabiego Kazimierza Pułaskiego i porozmawiamy o jego wpływie na rewolucję oraz o niedawnym odkryciu, że prawdopodobnie był osobą interpłciową.

Franklin Square
In Franklin Square we will discuss how Haiti volunteered during the American Revolution, clandestine schools that operated in Savannah that taught literacy to black students while such an education was outlawed, the First African Baptist Church which houses the oldest African Baptist congregation in the country, and its role in the Underground Railroad.
10
City Market
Passing through City Market, we will see Club One, the home performance venue of Lady Chablis, a Savannah LGBTQ icon. We will also see the building that was home to one of the most active markets for the selling of humans as property, which was immediately converted into a freedman's school after emancipation by some of the very people who were sold as property inside.
11
Telfair Academy
We will stop in front of Telfair Academy and discuss Mary Telfair, a woman who defied the expectations placed on her by gender roles at the time and began the legacy of preservation in Savannah.
12
Wright Square
Here we will discuss the impacts of two key native figures in Savannah history: Tomochichi, chief and founder of the native Yamacraw tribe, and Coosaponakeesa (AKA Mary Musgrove) a Creek woman. Both were as instrumental in the shaping of Savannah as Oglethorpe who is considered the founder.
13
Juliette Gordon Low Birthplace Museum
Here we will discuss Juliette Gordon Low, the founder of the girl Scouts, as well as other unconventional female family members, and how they impacted the roles women would play in the future, and will also touch on Julliette's hearing loss.
14
Chippewa Square
Here we will briefly discuss the original site of the Savannah Catholic Church, founded by the Haitian community discussed earlier. We we also discuss Susie King Taylor, a self-freed woman who served as a nurse and teacher during the Civil War, published a memoir, and opened a school for black children just off of Chippewa Square.
15
Madison Square
Here we will stop in front of the Green-Meldrim house and discuss Field Order 15, as issued by General Sherman but formed and negotiated by a group of 20 black pastors and community leaders led by Garrison Frazier, how it was the birth of practical reparation efforts, and why it implementation was prevented.
16
Monterey Square
Here we will discuss Jim Williams, famous from Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, but a prominent Savannah gay man who also began Savannah's entire restoration movement. We will also see the monument of Count Casimir Pulaski, and discuss his impact on the Revolution and the recent discovery that he was likely an intersex person.

Absolutely incredible tour!!! Sargon is a wealth of knowledge about Savannahs history and was able to easily pivot depending on the question we had at the moment, which we had many. Sargon also delivers the information in a very fun and story like manner so it wasn't just dry and boring information, along with giving as much detail about historical events and places as you could want. Having read about and listened to some of the other tours/tour guides this is a must do tour if you want something interesting, entertaining, and different from the information that you could probably just read in the footnote of a history book! When we make it back to Savannah we'll definitely take this tour again!

Is there a way to leave more stars?! This was such an amazing tour that excided my expectations. It was so refreshing to hear the sides of history that get overlooked and minimize in the name of status quo. Sargon was so insightful and knowledgeable of not just the stories but the whole of each person's life and the grater historical context. There is no greater experience than being shown Savannah by someone who genuinely loves learning and sharing history!

This was an excellent tour. Sargon was a very knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide who told us about a host of historical figures from Savannah history who did some remarkable things you wouldn't normally hear about. Their lives and stories were both important and colorful. This tour is as engaging and different as Savannah, itself. I'd recommend it to anybody. When planning your day and/or parking your car build in an extra 15 minutes because the tour ends about half a mile from where it starts.
