      No I cannot celebrate benefactors of slavery! Nathan Nearest Green taught Javk Daniel's how to make whiskey and Daniel's stole Nathan's recipe and took the recipe and ran with it and his family have become billionaires! And to hear whites sanitize the thievery of Nearest Green's whiskey. This is a repetitive story of Whites gleaning the creative minds of slaves and hijacking recipes and ideas for agriculture. I dont think that's his son but I think that's Nearest. He kept Nearest close to him because Nearest taught him everything he knew. God dont like ugly and maybe that was Karma that caused that suffering.

    Love the vid. These grass roots tours show we share a united heritage, regardless of race or religion. Jack Daniels and Nearest Green were ahead of their times.

      Yes, every race has it's own...but the process that Jack Daniel's used was directly linked to Nearest and how they made it in West Africa. It may not have been called "Whiskey" but the process is still the same to this day.
