They made every brick by hand from the mud of the Brazos River. They built the mansion, worked the sugar fields, and created an empire they would never own. Over 100 enslaved men, women, and children lived and labored at Varner Hogg Plantation in Brazoria County, Texas — yet for decades, their stories were buried beneath tales of wealthy landowners and oil fortunes.In this documentary, we uncover the real history behind one of Texas' most significant plantations: from Martin Varner's arrival in 1824 as one of Stephen F. Austin's original colonists, to Columbus Patton's brutal sugar empire built on the backs of enslaved people, to the mysterious declaration of insanity that tore the plantation apart — and even the brief imprisonment of Mexican dictator Santa Anna on these very grounds.This is not just a story about a plantation.
