Today in Black Women's History, i researched Mary Elizabeth Bowser. During the Civil War, she ingeniously turned negative stereotypes about Black individuals to her advantage as a spy. Her ability to blend in and go unnoticed by those around her serves as a powerful reminder not to judge someone solely by appearances, as she successfully deceived those who underestimated her.••#truestories #realtruestories #civilwarhistory #americancivilwarhistory #iconsblack #blackicons #iconicwomen #blackwomen

Watching The Gray House and as someone from Virginia, I really appreciate how well they depict the history. Richmond played such a major role during the Civil War, and stories like the spy network involving Elizabeth Van Lew and Mary Bowser are such an important part of Virginia’s past. And with actors like Morgan Freeman and Kevin Costner involved, it makes the storytelling even more powerful. Growing up here, you’re surrounded by this history, so seeing it brought to life on screen really hits
