THE MONTIERS: AN AMERICAN STORY is a half-hour program that tells the history of the Montiers - a trailblazing Philadelphia family who were among the first African American landowners in Pennsylvania. Family portraits found under a bed unveil the captivating story of an African American family with a rich history and blood ties to the first mayor of Philadelphia, Humphrey Morrey, appointed by William Penn in 1691. The Montiers' interracial love story is remarkable and offers viewers insight into how they overcame adversity and set the stage for many pioneering family stories that followed.
