octopus_inkNation's largest remaining antebellum plantation burns to the ground
Hot take: This isn’t uplifting at all. Burning this is like burning a labor camp, it reminds people of what life really was back then. It’s important to preserve history, especially if it’s dark, so we don’t repeat it.
It wasn’t a museum, or a living heritage site, it’s where southern debutantes threw antebellum themed weddings.
It needed to be destroyed for what it is as much as what it was.
