The Curse of Ham & The Southern Baptist Convention

#ancestry #nytn #ancestry #findingyourroots #familyhistory #genealogy

One sentence from the Bible was used to justify 400 years of slavery and make families hide their own ancestors. But the Bible doesn't actually say that, and prominent Christian leaders knew it and said so. This is the story of the Curse of Ham: how a theological lie was built on a passage that means something completely different.

Come join me on a new docu-series that explores identity, racial tensions in the South during the 20th century, and the unique experiences of those who historically called Louisiana home.
My name is Danielle Romero, and all my life, I have romanticized Louisiana.
Growing up in New York, it represented a place where I could step back the sepia-toned life of my great grandmother, Lola Perot, who died before I was born.
Now, it was time to go back to Louisiana--although I had no idea what the truth would be or what questions to ask---who was Lola really? Who were we?
