Saturday, September 15, 2007

Historic Brattonsville
What was life like for the thousands of slaves in Carolina Piedmont? This annual
event focuses exclusively on the African American experience. Visitors gain an understanding of
18th and 19th century enslaved African American life through dramatic presentations.
Life in the big house,
life in the fields and life with family are all aspects of the experiences of African Americans that will be
examined.
The story will be enriched with songs, dance and storytelling showing where those traditions have come today.
