The Freedmen Series, Part 1

This is a video posted on one of my favorite blogs addressing Black- Indian history, The African- Native American Genealogy Blog.  In The Freedmen Series, Angela Y. Walton-Raji provides compelling, and heartbreaking historical fact that explores the genealogical records of the “forgotten slaves, and their descendants of the five civilized tribes of Oklahoma”.  This is the first installment in the six- part series, and a great tool for educators who are interested in exposing all aspects of the institution of slavery in this country.
