An old slave row is the centerpiece of
black history month observations at Magnolia Plantation and Gardens near
Charleston.
Beginning Saturday, historians,
artisans, genealogists and storytellers will gather to tell the experience of
blacks at the plantation. The storytelling will take place each Saturday.
The slave dwellings were occupied from
1850 until the late 20th century. Five years ago, the four cabins were
renovated to represent different periods from slavery and Reconstruction
through the Jim Crow era and the civil rights movement.
Each Saturday in February, one cabin
will be featured and there will be food and craft demonstrations, storytellers,
children's activities and cabin tours.
There will also be live music and walks through the
nearby cemetery where blacks who cultivated Magnolia's gardens are buried.
