I wish they teach this in school this will upset people the truth 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
That’s an awesome piece of history ❤
Slavery really was so very brutal and cruel.
What a blessing in a cursed time of history. This was decades before the Emancipation Proclamation.
The good doctor did right by mamma & son. Freedom & education meant opportunity.
By God’s Grace this family was ahead of the ball. This was a personal blessing for Lionel and his loved ones.
This family story shines light out of pain & suffering. One person can make a difference in the lives of generations to come. Remarkable.
If he wasn't a rapist (which sounds likely) we know he was a slave owner so I find calling a known slave owner and suspected rapist 'the good doctor' more then problematic..
Lionel resembles the man in the picture 😮!
I can see who Lionel got his long face from.
😂 I thought the same immediately
Lionel looks just like that man.
He looks like Morgan W
We can “only speculate” .
Slaves carried a significant cash value. That and that alone ruled if the directives within a will were carried out by the administrator(s). An it wasn’t uncommon for such directives to be at best ignored or even legally overturned.
can Lionel Richie narrate something, please?!
How moving and poignant ! 🙏
His ancestor looks like Abe Lincoln 😮
I've always thought that Lionel Richie was a % Caucasian. Hes of excellent lineage..obviously...of both. 😊
👏👏👏
multigenerationally mixed gang 🫶🏻🇳🇬🇮🇪
