Slavery in Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia


Williamsburg, like the rest of the country, relied on  slaves in everyday life during colonial times.  Here, three costumed characters work at one of the taverns at Colonial Williamsburg.

Colonial Williamsburg has a number of programs through which the issue is discussed and presented.

  1. What an interesting blog, and so many beautiful photos! The history is still near, and I like that. The fife & drum corps impressed me (I watched the video below.) Thanks for sharing!
