A Silent Fire: Uncovering Lost Black History in Appalachia (Full Documentary)
Macie Alford uncovers newspaper reports from 1880 about a mysterious fire that killed four Black children in the isolated Appalachian mountain community of Burke's Garden, Virginia. Macie is surprised the deaths are not mentioned in local stories or history books. As Macie investigates the fire, she discovers a much deeper story about how some chapters of Black history in southwest Virginia have been lost or forgotten. #blackhistory #appalachia #virginia #slavery #VirginiaIsForHistoryLovers #VA250 #America250 #America250VA #VirginiasHistoryIsAmericasStory
