You may have heard that, during the U.S. Civil War, Union general William T. Sherman promised that freed slaves would receive 40 acres of land and a mule. And you may know that promise was not kept.
But WHERE did he make that promise? I'm standing on the exact spot. The Second African Baptist Church is behind me. Do you know the city where this church is located?
See alt text for the standard description - and more.

In my 3rd #kentucky #blackhistory video of 2023, I talk about the Shelbyville Community Remembrance Project Coalition, formed in 2019 to memorialize the six Black men murdered by #lynching in the county (that we know of). Through the SCRPC, as of 2021, Shelbyville is the first town in Kentucky to officially memorialize lynching victims.

Marie Van Brittan Brown was an African American nurse and inventor who, in 1966, came up with the idea for a home surveillance device with a closed circuit television security system.
Her invention was the precursor to how modern day home security systems would be designed.
Brown was given a prestigious award by the National Scientists Committee but for the most part, her invention has gone unnoticed and undocumented by mainstream media and literature.

The Bog was gentrified (read: bulldozed) in the early 20th century.
