Remembering Enslavement by Amy E Potter

Explores plantation museums as sites for contesting and reforming public interpretations of slavery in the American South. Emerging out of a three-year National Science Foundation grant, the book turns a critical eye toward the growing inclusion of the formerly enslaved within these museums.

What the authors successfully do is offer guides, site managers, and visitors a window into the plantation interpretation experience outside of their own, as well as points of reflection for guides and site managers revising interpretation strategies. . . Remembering Enslavement makes a significant contribution to cultural geography, plantation/slavery tourism, and public history.
