  • In this video Salvatore Vinciguerra travels to the Oak Alley Plantation in Vacherie, Louisiana. The Oak Alley Plantation has over 200 years of history. It is one of only 20 Plantation homes open to the public along the Mississippi River. The Oak Alley Plantation is about an hour from New Orleans, Louisiana and is a great day trip if you are staying in the Big Easy. The plantation does have a restaurant and overnight cottages for visitors who would like to stay overnight.
    Salvatore first shares with you the slave quarters which includes replicas of some of the homes African Americans lived in during the time of slavery. The interpretive center does a great job in helping visitors understand about slavery in the United States. The exhibit includes a database of those that were enslaved on the plantation and several artifacts and reproductions from the era. Please check out the Oak Alley Plantation website below as it contains several articles on the topic.
    Then, Salvatore shares with you the history of the Oak Alley plantation and how it was used to produce sugar cane. This virtual tour also includes a brief history of the home and a tour and history of the gardens on the plantation. Salvatore even walks along the levee located on the Mississippi River to give you a better perspective as to the importance of the mighty river and how it helped the plantation become successful by exporting the sugar cane.
    Don't forget that if you would like a tour of the "Big House" then you will need to purchase tickets in advance to tour the home.

    I just visited a couple days ago and it was a nice tour. We weren’t allowed to take photos which is why me and my family came but enjoyed ourselves nonetheless. The fact that enslaved men and women built this home against their will breaks my heart. Some of you all look at this house and see beauty but don’t think about how it was built and about the people who bled and were whipped due to being exhausted and not being able to carry on. I see no beauty in this house. I see hard work, tears, and shame. I don’t want to make anything negative but we truly don’t know what it was personally like during that time. There is no room for argument with anything I’ve said as you wouldn’t understand. May the soul’s of Oak Alley rest in heaven ✊🏾

    Hi Sal, that is a beautiful historic home and the oak trees are so unique. Really nice tour even though we couldn't see the inside the big house. Thanks for sharing. FW and have a great day.

      You should’ve been allowed inside if you bought the plantation tour ticket. The only instance in which you wouldn’t have been let in is if you came after your scheduled tour time

      There’s blood in the soil. As beautiful as it is, Oak Alley’s history is extremely dark and ever so sad. I know for me it’d be hard not to feel that horrible past while sitting cinder those trees, laying in the grass all day. I appreciate that this video is very respectful of the slaves and examines what life would have been like for them.

    You keep talking about Emancipation Proclamation. It only applied to the rebellion states. It did not apply to the northern or border states. And really didn't apply to anyone as the war was ongoing for 2 more years. Many blacks willingly joined the Confederate Army. It was not a myth as some northerners claim. After the war, many southern state governments paid pensions to black Confederates. It's all documented. Some time ago, I saw the website that listed black Confederate pensioners, but it was taken down. I guess not politically correct. FYI, I'm not pro-slavery. However, it continues to this day.
