Homeschool Friday | The Lives of African Americans Before the Civil War

Join us in celebrating African American heritage during the month of Jubilee! From the voices of slave children in South Carolina to the experiences of local freedmen Celia Mann and Ben Delane and famous freedman Frederick Douglass, learn about what it meant to be a slave, an abolitionist and an entrepreneur before the Civil War.

All homeschool students are invited to participate in Historic Columbia’s Homeschool Friday programs. Each month’s program includes hands-on activities while students learn and explore different themes and historic sites. Homeschool Fridays programs are designed for students of elementary and middle school age levels. Reservations are suggested.
