Have you read Bill Collage's "Emancipation" screenplay? Now's your chance. Get it right here, right now!
The film is inspired by the 1863 photos of "Whipped Peter," taken during a Union Army medical examination, that first appeared in Harper’s Weekly. One image, known as "The Scourged Back," which shows Peter’s bare back mutilated by a whipping delivered by his enslavers, ultimately contributed to growing public opposition to slavery.
You can read History Channel's backstory about the photo on their website, HERE. Also, Wikipedia has a fantastic article about "Peter," whose actual slave name was "Gordon." Read more HERE.
