Black History is American History: Episode 29 (The Forgotten Story of Seneca Village, and the Origins of “40 Acres and a Mule”)

In this very special episode in honor of Black History Month we drink the iconic Knickerbocker cocktail. The term comes from OG Dutch settlers and refers to an old fashion style of pants. This New York City cocktail was popular in the 1850s, the era and the setting of Tux's scandal.

STEPHANIE talks about “40 acres and a mule” and how the scandal of what happened to this land shows so much of what was possible at this one moment in history and what Reconstruction could have been if this country was about freedom and justice for all of its citizens.
