Trailer for 40 Acres and a Mule Tour

History nerds, test your knowledge!
This is a trailer for the Savannah history tour video, "40 Acres and the Truth."
Tour Guide Fritz Rumpel takes you on a walk through six of Savannah's most historic squares, telling you the definitive story of 40 acres and a mule. Along the way, he employs photographs, illustrations, and audio and video clips to present you with a dramatic rendering of historic events that took place in Savannah from its founding in 1733 to the end of the Civil War in 1865.
"Everything we wanted to know about Savannah's history we learned from this tour. Fritz Rumpel took us back in time and he also showed us artistically, intellectually and even spiritually the roots of Savannah's wealth and growth."
Cassandra F,, Atlanta
"Can't stop thinking about this tour! Savannah's squares and nearby buildings hold seldom-told stories of events with civic and national impact. This tour's knowledgeable creator and guide weaves stories of six squares into a fascinating whole. You won't be bored, and you'll think about what you've seen and heard for days afterward."
Diane S., Cincinnati
"A thinking person's tour! No silly stories about ghosts, old women in hoop skirts or pirates, but real events that affected real people. This proves that Mark Twain was right when he wrote "“Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn't."
Keith G., New York
Every person living in America should hear the emotional story that Fritz relays. We are still reflecting on how much this tour moved us 4 months afterward."

Hi. I'm from Yahoo. I'm the guy that insulted you. My bad. I hope you reply.
So...for the people in the back General Sherman wasn't the hero....duh it was Stanton who had a conscience. Pay attention to the Black and White photos of the Massacre at Ebenezer's Creek

If we do them how they did our ancestors, we wouldn’t be demanding reparations, bcuz they’d give them up!
Reparations now, just give’em up America!
I really have a question why should the nation that led the uprising against slavery pay reparations????? If you feel you deserve something because your ancestors suffered go to hell I mean if that's the case then I deserve reparations because I'm 33% Cherokee so everyone in this country should pay me reparations
@@mattsprayberry0 stop being stupid, do your genealogy!
Is this critical race theory?
I don't know let's see
No this has nothing to do critical race theory. This was an actual agreement between Black soldiers that fought fought in civil war... The generals wanted to keep black soldiers and enlist more.. they knew there was no incentive for black people to stay in the military if they free now... so they asked what can we do to keep and enlist more.. they asked that all black slaves families get 40 acres and a mule... the land promise is worth over 87million that was back in 2015... unfortunately Lincoln was assassinated and Andrew veto and took land back and gave the land to white slave owners... messed up... I dont think every black person should get reprobations.. I think only ones who are descendants of slaves from the south because they actually had a legal agreement.... all the others like black immigrants should not get it...just my opinion...it doesn't matter what color you are an agreement is an agreement.. that was wrong for our country to do that...
Wow! Very touching, informative, and educational. Thank you for sharing.
I think its time American pay us what they owe us....#session
