Today at the Down Home Podcast, we ask: What if the promise was kept? What if, after emancipation, Black Americans truly received 40 acres and a mule? What if the Black Loyalists — those who fought for freedom in exchange for loyalty — were actually granted the 100 acres they were promised? How would land, ownership, and economic freedom have transformed generations? What would our present look like if those reparations had been real?
