We highly recommend this tour . The tour guide was knowledgeable , talented, as well as an accomplished author of at least 3 books about the history Black Americans from South Carolina. We learned a lot from this experience!

Very entertaining! From singing to playing an instrument and acting out scenes of history. At the same time, keeping us informed on the importance of knowing and understanding the lost stories of Black Charleston.

How many tour guides really tell Charleston's truths? How many really know their history? I can think of one= Damon Fordham. This author/scholar/professor/storyteller/ journeyman truly speaks from experience and love of his city. He surprises, engages and I won't give away a hidden talent he exercises at the beginning, middle and end of tour. Mr. Fordham invites questions, in fact, he delights in them. I left the tour longing for more stories and hoping he expands his tours to other Charleston neighborhoods whose stories need telling so they are not forgotten. Thank you, Damon Fordham!

Damon Fordham led our group on the Lost Stories of Black Charleston Walking Tour. It started at Buxton Books at King Street. I was an interesting and insightful tour. Damon blended music and song, and he has written a number of history books. He also has his You Tube channel "The American Storyteller." Well worth doing!

Damon knows his stuff for sure. He accommodated questions and was engaging. The only thing I didn't care for were the long stops and stories. Let's walk and talk... it seems like we stood in one place for a very long time at each stop. However, he definitely knows his Charleston history!
