This is the least that I will say about what happened when a violent free-for-all broke out at the Riverfront in Montgomery, Alabama.
This story is relevant to the podcast because it occurred in an area that is "sacred" to the descendants of enslaved Africans in the South. In essence, it once functioned as a port where their African ancestors were trafficked and traded.
Since my parents are from that general area of Alabama, it is quite possible that some of my own ancestors were probably brought down the Alabama River to that very spot and sold right up the street.
Hence, my connection and strong interest.
