    The way Kat Imhoff talks about the families there you would think she is talking about a happy community, not slaves. She talks about the children, grandmothers etc like a happy scenario

      And on top of that Sandra, what's with music and laughter? Nothing comedic nor nonchalant about this. Never ceases to amaze me how some people take our History and that era so lightly. Stay safe and well my friend.

      A slave community? No, this was a prison camp. They did not "invest" in glass windows? Really? These people may be archaeologists but they are very insensitive and ignorant to the horrors of slavery. Its almost as if they are desecrating a cemetery.

      @@Caramel923 Totally agree with you @ K Luv. Slavery was and is something to not take lightly. Excavate or whatever, but this was a place where vile and grave injustices was done to another human being. No doubt whippings, hunger, abuse of different situations and kinds took place on this spot and area. So I agree with @K Luv. Archeologists realize where you are and what you are touching. An area of Black History. Stay safe and well my friend K Luv.

      100% agree, be more respectful of the things that happened here, people suffered and died and were held captive, it was not a glorious life.

    I am not for slavery or have I ever been. It's wrong & it's wrong to enslave another human being.

      What does your opinion on slavery have to do with this video? This is about historical excavation. Were you afraid someone would think you were pro-slavery or something?

      What about free healthcare and free college tuition? You're for those, aren't you?

    Did that man really say “sash Windows isn’t something an enslaved daily would INVEST in”???? Like any slave had a choice in what features their dwellings would have?

      I will never believe that ownining another human being could be good.What upsets me is that most slaves that were sent here were sold by blacks in Africa! But you very seldom hear that brought up. Give it up! With no history you have no past.

    I think you are all full of crap! Who cares what you think of the way things were and the way things ought to be according to your sanctimonious attitudes. I would say what I think but I won’t expect you to care.

      Ms nabell Do you dress frumpy and not wear makeup? There is "ONE GOD, THE LIVING GOD"! Also how do you know there's not a God? You know I could go tit for tat with you about this but it's a waste of positive energy. You know you can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink. We all wake up each morning with "free will and choice". I just so choose to believe in Jesus Christ and you choose not to. I will pray that God will soften your heart and you not be so quick to judge.

    Let’s build a Japanese internment camp on the Roosevelt estate and while we’re at it…a Bay of Pigs memorial at the Kennedy compound. As long as you want to keep this disgusting part of history in your face forever lets be fair

      I feel all plantations should be destroyed all over the south were slaves were tortured, rape, lynched, and sold like cattle. Why is any of this pass history being recognized as monumental or even honored. Where there was habitual, inhumane, torture, working for no pay in America. Plantations should not be memorialized, all should be destroyed.

      Because when you erase history, you cease to have an identity. Read George Orwell's book "1984"

      You shouldn't erase history. You have to let people know about it.

      If that is true, I guess white people are the new and improved version of humanity!
