Description

They Fought for the Land – and the Right to Live Free On It.

In South Carolina, during and after the Revolutionary War, Black and Native people weren’t just surviving – they were resisting, reclaiming, and rebuilding.

In “Siege & Freedom: Black and Native Stories from Revolutionary South Carolina,” we trace the untold stories of African Americans and East Coast Native Peoples who fought for more than just independence from Britain. They fought for their own freedom, land, and legacy.

🛡️ Discover how Black and Native communities defended their families and claimed their place in a land trying to erase them.

🌾 Learn how land became a symbol of dignity – and a battleground for justice.

📚 Hear the stories of resilience that echo through Reconstruction, Jim Crow, and into today.

This is African American history we were rarely taught – but it’s ours to remember, reclaim, and protect.

🎙️ Featuring: Dr. Anna Lisa Cox & Bernice Alexander Bennett
