We Shall Overcome: A Williamsburg Black History Experience

Обзор
Come on to our history of black Americans tour presented by Junket!

We often learn the history and stories of heroes of the American Revolution and the early history of America. What isn't often covered in history classes and history books is the story of African Americans who were enslaved during this time. On this unique tour, we'll discover the stories of African Americans who lived and worked in Colonial Williamsburg. From the slaves buried in the graveyard of the Historic First Baptist Church, to the woman who left property to her freed black servants, you'll uncover the untold stories of the oppressed, and their path to freedom.

Our guide, Vince, (I hope that’s his name!🤦‍♀️) was very knowledgeable & answered our many questions. We loved learning a part of history not often talked about. He was in tune to the limitations of our group, made adjustments smoothly & always found a shady spot!

Our tour guide was Vince. He was incredibly knowledgeable and found shaded areas to keep the group comfortable while touring the landmarks. Highly recommend the experience! Guaranteed to learn about historical facts and figures that are simply not taught.
