News, the Grande Dame said bringing Bravo’s cameras into the estate she grew up on allowed her to show another side of her and her upbringing. “At this time in our country, when we're encouraged not to talk about Black history, we were honored, as a Black family, to talk about Black history," Karen told the outlet. "Not only talk about it, but talk about the plan to move forward. How do we keep this wonderful land of ours alive for the next 100 years? It was a poignant moment, and it couldn't have come at a better time. It needs to be spoken about more."Article continues below advertisementSource: Bravo Karen also said she felt it was important for her family to learn where their roots stem. In the special, they discover their ancestors worked as enslaved people when they were alive. Instead of negatively looking at her family’s history, Karen focused on her family’s long-lasting impact on the community. “What I learned lifted us and empowered us even more,” she said of the news. “We knew we were bad. We knew we were something special. We just didn't know how special we were. Slavery didn't tarnish that. It actually ignited us, and we were able to repurpose that. When you know from whence you come, there's no stopping you."
