Slavery might have ended on paper after the Civil War, but many white landowners did everything they could to exploit newly freed slaves well into the 20th century. Thousands of black laborers across the South were forced to work against their will as late as the 1960s-a new form of enslavement that went on in the shadows of rural America.
VICE's Akil Gibbons traveled to Louisiana to meet genealogist Antoinette Harrell, the “slavery detective of the South," who tracks down cases of modern-day slavery and abusive labor practices. They talk to a man whose family was held on a plantation against their will into the 1950s, and Antoinette explains how she uses decades-old records to uncover how slavery was perpetuated long after the Civil War ended.

Oh, Jesus, the American school system is such a failure. Sir, those were the Dixiecrats, democrats defined by their adherence and advocacy of southern politics, and what was called "the southern way of life', hence defined by the maintenance of slavery as institution and policy, as well as their relationship to the KKK. Fast forward to 1964, LBJ seeks passage of the Civil Rights Act, Dixiecrats refused to comply/accept the legislation and recognition/enforcement of the civil rights of African Americans, and filibuster the passage of the Civil Rights Act, it passes in spite of their racist efforts. LBJ remarks that Democrats have lost the south forever.....So fucking ill educated.... Go. read. a. fucking. book. Stop jacking off to pictures of Taylor Swift, and starting reddit threads regarding all manner of white nonsense...what is it now, Black Panther is reverse racism propaganda...whatever....it's too late anyway.

I would like to see JUST ONCE, where somebody like VICE takes a slave descendant back to Africa to try and find out their history and find out who the black slave trader was that was willing to sell somebody of their own skin color to the white man. You got that in you Vice? Nah, I did not think so either! I understand that the way many whites treated their slaves was inhumane and disgusting, but why not show the whole story? It is a part of history, is it not?

As it hit me listening to what that man had witnessed... I had to take a moment to process it. You took a man, killed him, castrated him and then left him hanging in a tree directly in front of his family's home so they all could see it. Anyone who even tries to justify something like that is a psychopath and disgusting. And the fact that it happened in the 40s and 50s should disturb people--that wasn't that long ago yall. We have relatives here today who grew up during that time.

FYI, Donald chose this lifestyle. He has 3 older brothers that left that land to live more productive lives. One went to college and now owns his own business. One went to the military, then married and lived in Germany. The 3rd got a regular job and lives a normal life. Donald likes hunting, fishing and being around the farm. You see this as slavery. He sees this as a easy way of life. Material possessions don’t matter to him. He knows his family history. The family has had reunions since 1969. His mother was one of the best family historians. So he had knowledge, and options, but he chose to stay where he is.

​@@blacklandranch6093 I read your comments several times before responding just to be sure I say what I'm going to say to you. Your comment sounds like a rebuttal and I'm going to treat it as such. You sound more like me a slave owner sympathizer than a realistic Black American Woman, here's why: You never showed proof of Donald's brother existence much less their journey in life. Donald is living on the land that he was born on in peonage. He had 5 generations on that land before him. You can't prove that Donald had a better way out of it his mental/emotional faculties are strong enough and his skill set is limited to agriculture which doesn't pay enough to house himself if he wished to go. Perhaps your 80 acres in Commerce Texas is peaceful for you, while you meditate and practice Poi, but you must be seriously inept to not see that free room and board doesn't erase the history of Donald's 5 generations not being chattel slaves but in peonage. Did you NOT hear him describe the long hours his mother worked❓ You really sound inept!

Greetings from Cambodia. You did an amazing job presenting this documentary. Tears me up and makes me want to scream. First thing that comes to mind is, "I'm sorry." I'm sorry this happened with your ancestors as it did with the ancestors of millions of others. So important that the stories of these hard-working, abused, and incredibly strong beings and how they survived under incredible hardships, threats, and deaths to hold you up. Just as others now stand on your shoulders. I'm so glad to see the work of this historian and the young man who created this documentary. Thank you. I was born in the Midwest of the US almost 70 years ago. I have done ancestry research--one line up to their arrival in the 1600s. I've run across stories among my ancestors who were hung as witches, who were indentured people from Europe and Great Britain, people who enslaved other human beings, Black relatives with rapist "masters," and people who owned, beat and/or emancipated enslaved humans. My 2nd Great-Grandfather was 17 and living in Rome, Georgia when he enlisted with the Federal troops occupying Georgia in 1864 and fought with the North until the end of the war. I appreciate the stories of people who stood/stand for truth, kindness, and equality, but all of the stories are not like that. Many are the source of unimaginable horror stories. All are important to know for insights into ourselves and the experience of others.

The way that man spoke down to Akil, touching him to show some sort of “friendliness”, how he kept repeating “okay” and “i swear to god” just really shows who he is and what he believes. You can see the guilt and knowing in his eyes, he knows, he just can’t admit it to himself what his family & that land was/is apart of. So incredibly disappointing, I hope he, his family, do the work that all white folk must do. Unlearn, relearn, and true, real continuous education. I hope generational healing comes to all those effected by him/his family personally and that all black & brown people who have been continually harmed and exploited find true healing and peace. I hope the USA pays for the crimes they’ve done to all People of Color but most especially black people & indigenous folk; reparations, available helpful resources (mental health support, therapy, etc.) & complete reform of all systems that were made to benefit from slavery/keep those in power in power & systems that protect those who are aligned with the interests and “values” of the wealthy/Government

Why are you guys still living in the past? No way am I saying that what this people went through wasn't horrific, just that why can't people just move on? Some people live horrible lifes as kids, and instead of crying about how much they have suffered and deciding that they'd rather be dead because they can't take the pain of those memories anymore, they choose to move on and some don't even hate the people that hurt them. Some forget them, others forgive them. Some people are born without legs, hands, and such and seen as different, but they don't let that stop them from wanting to live even if life would be so much easier if they weren't missing a body part and such. People like them have thought me so much like why is useless to be stuck in the past, how it hurts me and others around me and such. Aren't you happy that at least you're not being enslaved and such like this people were? Would you rather be one of the people that went through those things instead of being as free as you are now? Isn't something like that enough to celebrate? Enough to say, my people have suffered for so long, but now is over and if not over, at least, is not as bad as it used to be". Did you guys forget or not know that lots of whites, specially from the north were against slavery? And that some blacks and a lot of whites, especially from the south were pro-slavery? Remember not every white police officer will kill a black one on purpose. I feel like that's enough to say, that that's a choice of the individual either because they have been thaught to think as blacks as different or because they just like feeling like they're better than someone. I don't know a single person who doesn't like the same.

@@laughandlive377 Shhhh.... You may not know this but it's disgustingly-disrespectful to tell someone that went thru a traumatic experience of any kind. "To just get over it". They are simply reflecting on their lives and experience, so I don't know what possibly gave you the gull or gumption, or for better words AUDACITY, to feel like your opinions about "living in the past" are some how "needed" or "important".. But that's something you have to figure out for yourself. If the way you get thru life is by putting things behind you and not acknowledging your ancestors history then by all means YOU have every right to do that. You can't go around telling ppl how they should not handle their own history.

@@djbluejazz7349 Oh, so you'd rather live a miserable life always thinking about the bad things and ignoring even the slightly good things? Go on, but you're hurting more than just yourself by doing that. Like that saying goes "Hating someone is like poisoning yourself" or something and if you call yourself Christian, I hope you take that to heart since you can't go to heaven with hatred in you as it says in the bible. Ah, I would basically hate everyone in my life if I focused on how awful they are or the pain they have caused me. That includes family and friends. And yet, I hate none of them. Call me a bitch if you want because I refuse to listen to the depressing voice in my head that's often trying to bring me down. And that's the reason I haven't killed myself. And do to that discovery I made, I realize that depression really is all in the head and a thing you can easily get over depending on how you view things. Which explains why some kids are happy and loving to parents that threat them horrible and they never hate those people. I call those kind of people angels on Earth. Isn't it weird that depressing people tend to be really negative, blame themselves for basically everything and such? There's even science behind it and it sure is interesting. I'd recommend you read about it. You can't seriously tell me that nothing good has happened to those people, can you? The thing is, that they tend to ignore those good things and focus on the bad ones. But wathever keep on lying to yourself all you want, I'm not the one getting hurt by it in the end.

I sat down with my dad earlier this year and he was telling me how it was for him growing up in South Carolina. He was born in the early 50s and was a sharecropper. When he told me that I damn near fell out of my seat. Sharecropper, for the majority of black people, equates to slaves. My grandparents were born in the early 20s and they too were sharecroppers. My whole family were sharecroppers. It just struck me as odd that legalized slavery (outside of the prison system) was still going on and that my dad was a damn slave. I was born in the late 80s. You should hear their stories.
