Thread Name: BS: Historic tour slave issue
Subject: BS: Historic tour slave issue
A friend of mine directs a historic home near Louisville, and I went with my daughter's class on a field trip there. A volunteer who was our guide kept saying how well the family had treated their slaves, and that many of the slaves chose not to leave when they were freed. It made me uncomfortable. Should I say something about it? What do you think?
