A Reparation of Land | The Cost of Inheritance: An America ReFramed Special | Clip
In 2019, Sarah Eisner discovered land that her ancestor, George Adam Keller, granted to enslaved Zeke Quarterman in the 1800s. But the title of ownership was never legally given. Eisner connected with Randy, a Quarterman descendant - they are now working together to right history's wrongs. THE COST OF INHERITANCE, an America ReFramed special, is an hour-long documentary that explores the complex issue of reparations in the United States using a thoughtful approach to history, historical injustices, systemic inequities, and the critical dialogue on racial conciliation. Through personal narratives, community inquiries, and scholarly insights, it aims to inspire understanding of the scope and rationale of the reparations debate. A documentary film by Yoruba Richen. THE COST OF INHERITANCE on PBS 1/8, and on WORLD 1/15 & 1/18. And streaming on the PBS app, YouTube and worldchannel.org. Watch: https://studio.youtube.com/playlist/P...
