In this episode of What Remains, we dive into the story of The Christian Banner, a short-lived Fredericksburg newspaper edited by James W. Hunnicutt. Once a respected community voice, Hunnicutt’s pro-Union stance during the Civil War put him at odds with his neighbors, leading to conflict, controversy, and the eventual silencing of his press.We’ll trace the paper's turbulent story, the powerful accounts it captured of enslaved people pursuing freedom, and the fragile legacy of newspapers as historical records.Music Credit: "Phantom Waltz Dance" by Stocktune, used with permission.
