Whitney Plantation is a space dedicated to truth-telling about America’s past. Here, you’ll learn about the West Africans who built this plantation, cleared the land, and maintained its success through their forced labor. From managing the flow of the Mississippi River by constructing levees, to cultivating rice, indigo, and sugarcane, over 350 enslaved people were the foundation of the plantation’s economy. We invite you to visit and learn. #SlaveryHistory #AmericanHistory #GermanCoast #Louisia

🗨️ “In this descendant community, it is very important to know where people came from and keep those old things alive. So this community can stay focused and stay above ground because being in Cancer Alley is pretty tough. And this is just a different form of slavery,” said Miss Cheryl, one of Whitney Plantation's historic interpreters. 🔎 Each of our historical interpreters gives the same core information but gives their tour through a unique lens. 📍 VISIT: https://whitneyplantation.org/plan-

Today the Mission Auxiliary visited Whitney Plantation, in Edgar, LA. This was an amazing outing with a wonderful tour guide who was a descendant of the enslaved who once worked and lived on this Sugar Cane plantation. There was so much history seen today and we appreciate the opportunity to be able to visit. A special thank you to our driver, Nathaniel Howard and his wife Melissa Howard for getting us there and back safely. Wow, What an experience! We are truly thankful and blessed for those wh
