charlie lewis was enslaved by colonel thomas beaufort. charlie lewis bought land from colonel beaufort in 1870. we have family members that still live there today. the area we call lewis' quarters. >> so there were displays and tables at the festival. what was that? how did you come up with that idea? >> well, that's another thing. i wanted people to, when they walk around, i wanted them to get information from all of the descendents. it wanted to make it informational when people walk around. i wanted them to get a little information from each descendent. >> cassandra lewis wallace. >> tell me about your display here. >> we can start from the beginning and bring it all the way down. from cudjoe, what we did was we started with the bloodline. cudjoe, we put his history and everything down here. the ship, we got the clotilda ship. we got different books about him. when we got to here, we wanted to bring his siblings alive with him with his history. we started with his generation of our bloodline, which is cudjoe and to his oldest son. we t

she would have contact with the 54th regiment when they sailed to the charleston and beaufort area. she taught many of the 54th soldiers to read in a school she set up in that area. she was actually the niece of robert purvis or, for example, charles lennox raymond, who was also a very prominent abolitionist in the 1850s and a noted speaker, someone who rivaled frederick douglass in prominence in the 1850s. and along these two walls here, we have pictures of some of the members of the 54th. we've begun, of course, with a picture of colonel robert gould shaw. he was offered the commission as colonel of the regiment by governor andrew. that was one of the first things governor andrew did. he made sure he had very firm leadership of the 54th. at the time, military regulations stipulated that the -- the rank and file soldiers could be african-americans, but the officers had to be white. that was the rule at the time. and governor andrew knew that it was important to have the leadership of the 54th be men from strong abolitionist families, which shaw's family was. so he offered the leade

federal statutes, the man who ordered the civil war on the way to school everyday, i went to robert e lee beaufort blvd. to go to the grocery store. again my parents lived on a street named after enslaved people so i didn't know those things at all growing up, i had no real conception of who these folks were to the extent that i did, i was just told they were important men in louisiana history and what's interesting is robert e lee is even an important man in louisiana history, he's from regina so there are multiple levels to this absurdity. >> so why are we told these things? why are children told that these men are important to us and why do we review a piece monuments? what you say to your kids about this? >> the reason confederate statues to slaveholders were erected was with specific intentions distorting the legacy and tumult their legacy in a way that's much more favorable than the reality of the project they were tied to so the confederacy is historical fact product and primary source documents. a territory that defeated the united states to raise an army predicated on expanding. white sup

here, in beaufort highway, which is a predominantly latino district of atlanta, core, community organize relief effort, is giving out vaccine for those 12 and up. nick valencia, cnn, atlanta. >> so as nick mentioned in his report, the annual motorcycle rally in sturgis, south dakota, got underway on friday. about 700,000 people are expected to attend the ten-day event, far more than in 2020. yet, out of last year's smaller crowd, the cdc documented 649 new covid cases. experts say, whether this year's rally becomes a superspreader event will depend on how many people are vaccinated, and how many choose to wear a mask. >>> so, one of the most frightening aspects of the delta variant is the number of young children who are becoming sick. and as millions, now, head back to school, the country is locked in a heated debate over whether they should wear masks in the classroom. the head of the cdc says the latest data all point to the need for masks. >> the places that are having the problem. the places that are having disease that is transmitted in the schools are the places that aren't taking
