NC plantation faces controversy for Juneteenth event referring to slaveowners as ‘white refugees’

The post did not appear to mention how the formerly enslaved were adjusting to their new freedom.

Furthermore, the enslaved are referred to only as “bondsmen,” and derisively “living high on the hog.”
