About Charleston: 1856

In Charleston, South Carolina, in the years before the Civil War, a white attorney and son of a prominent plantation owner fights to prove that a former slave is a free man — as the city slowly tears itself apart. Charleston is a narrative podcast set at one of the most explosive moments in Charleston history — the decade before the Civil War, when the city that had long considered itself the cultural and intellectual capital of the American South was hardening into something more dangerous, more certain of itself, and more willing to defend what it had built at any cost.
