A Glimpse into the Complex History of Cotton Plantations
Frogmore Plantation is a living history museum that takes you on a journey through time back to the height of the cotton plantation era. The tour is led by a descendant of the original owner, who provides insightful knowledge about the plantation's history. I was amazed to see the various stages of cotton production, from the fields to the gin, and learn about the enslaved laborers who toiled in the fields. The tour also explores the complex relationships between enslaved people and plantation owners during that time. It's a fascinating and informative experience that sheds light on the dark history of slavery in America.
