Discover the shocking true story of the most expensive slave ever sold in Memphis, Tennessee in 1857. This documentary uncovers the dark history deliberately erased from textbooks, revealing how a young enslaved man was sold for an impossible price of $12,500 and then mysteriously disappeared from all historical records. Through archival research and hidden documents, we expose the brutal reality of the fancy trade, the wealthy families who profited from it, and why this story has been buried for over 150 years. This is not just history, it is a mystery that reveals the darkest depths of American slavery and the ongoing effort to hide the truth.
