Ondergrondse Sporen - Season 1 Episode 2 The Ground
Martijn Blekendaal and Finbarr Wilbrink visit two former slave plantations. Finbarr goes to Oak Valley, which is a model for the romantic South and on which the film Gone with the Wind is based. Martijn goes to the Whitney Plantation, now a slavery museum where the story of oppression and exploitation is in stark contrast to the luxury and romance of Oak Valley. They end up in the magical location of Africatown, in the middle of a heavily polluted industrial area. This is where the descendants of the enslaved who came from the Clotilde, the last slave ship to arrive in America, live.
