Description
Dive into the harrowing true story of Josiah Henson, the enslaved man who inspired Harriet Beecher Stowe's iconic "Uncle Tom's Cabin." Born into bondage in 1789 Maryland, Henson endured unimaginable trauma—from witnessing his father's brutal punishment to becoming a conflicted overseer under his cruel master, Isaac Riley. This documentary-style video uncovers the moral torment Henson faced: wielding the whip on his own people to protect his family, discovering Riley's secret plan to sell everyone south during a treacherous journey to Kentucky, and making the agonizing choice to escape with his wife and children, leaving others behind.
Explore the psychological depths of slavery's impossible decisions, the Underground Railroad escape to Canada, and Henson's legacy as an abolitionist leader who founded the Dawn Settlement. Drawing from historical records and Henson's autobiography, we reveal the sanitized narrative he presented versus the chilling realities of guilt, survival, and redemption. Perfect for history buffs, students, and anyone interested in African American history, abolitionism, and the dark side of America's past.
