Overview of your Charleston tour:

Growing up in a slave owning family Angelina and Sarah Grimké turned their backs on their home and family to begin a crusade on fighting injustices to women of the day and those enslaved. Follow in the footsteps of these 2 courageous women and discover how life in Charleston was for both the privileged elite and the enslaved masses. Sue Monk Kidd’s bestselling novel The Invention of Wings has helped bring renewed attention to the Grimké sisters’ legacy. Although Angelina and Sarah Grimké were trailblazing abolitionists and feminists in their time, their legacy has largely faded into obscurity — both in American history and in their hometown of Charleston. Join me to uncover the remarkable story of these courageous sisters and the powerful impact they made on the fight for justice.
