No need to be so anal about her doing history recreation for that wedding.
That's the way it was way back then and you can't change that. I'm sure lots
of black people lost out on a good evenings job when this was canceled.

When slaves were first freed, many of them stayed on and worked for their
plantations where they grew up. It was their home. It was nice to be finally
free, but not all chose to leave.
