In six years, she\u2019s taken countless tours \u2013 walking tours, food tours, by carriage, focused on ghosts or the Civil War, and others. She\u2019s found a disturbing narrative interwoven in the information presented.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_25001\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-25001\" style=\"width: 250px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/Shevaun-Watson__v.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-25001 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/Shevaun-Watson__v.jpg\" alt=\"Associated Professor of English Shevaun Watson's research required her to take countless tours of Charleston, South Carolina, as well as examine tour guide manuals, study literature on other tourism draws and compile data on the economics of the tourism industry.\" width=\"250\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-25001\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Associated Professor of English Shevaun Watson&#8217;s research required her to take countless tours of Charleston, South Carolina, as well as examine tour guide manuals, study literature on other tourism draws and compile data on the economics of the tourism industry. (UW-Eau Claire\/Bill Hoepner)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cThe tourism industry is invested in the construction of these narratives about the past that shore up the white elite as being these imperiled people throughout history, who have had to withstand slave rebellions and hurricanes and fires and the North, and on and on,\u201d Watson said. \u201c(Tourism) lulls people into not being very critical about history, or about race, or about slavery. \u2026 It feeds into some of the white supremacy that we see there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Watson detailed her findings in a paper published in <em>Rhetoric Society Quarterly<\/em>, summing up the major problem with the narrative: It <em>works<\/em>. Tourism is a cash cow in South Carolina and especially in Charleston. The state raked in $18 billion in tourism in 2014, and 2015 is predicted to set a new record for income. Charleston is consistently ranked as a top tourist destination, both for domestic and international travelers.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, Watson said, it\u2019s likely that this beloved narrative has prevented people from talking honestly about the city\u2019s involvement in the slave trade and its legacy of racism. It creates an environment in which people may buy into the idea of whites being a beleaguered group, and at its worst, may fuel the kind of hostility that causes someone to open fire at a historically black church.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat unwillingness to engage in the hard conversations really hampers our ability to respond productively to these kinds of race-related problems that we continue to have,\u201d Watson said. \u201cI think tourism plays some role in this. I was not surprised that (the shooting) happened in Charleston.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s more, Watson has seen tourists play straight into the narrative, though she hasn\u2019t conducted all of the research she would like to do on this particular subject. She\u2019s been on several historical tours in which tourists asked not to hear about the city\u2019s history of slavery, even on outings billed specifically as slavery tours.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I did chime in one time and said I would like to hear a little bit about it (the tour guide said), \u2018Oh, it looks like we have a Yankee in our midst.\u2019 I don\u2019t think there is a mechanism where people who might share my same concerns could really actually say something,\u201d Watson said.<\/p>\n<p>Watson\u2019s research involved participating in the city\u2019s tours several times over, as well as poring over tour guide manuals, studying literature on other tourism draws like monuments, and closely examining the economics of the industry.<\/p>\n<p>She found hidden costs to Charleston\u2019s tourism industry, first among them accurate history. Some tour guides were working from manuals that hadn\u2019t been updated in four decades, giving out incorrect information.<\/p>\n<p>The city\u2019s residents bear other costs. For example, historical preservation of old buildings has made housing extremely expensive, driving out the middle class, especially black middle-class residents.<\/p>\n<p>Watson would like to see that change. She thinks better education for tour guides could help, along with measures to protect against structural inequalities that make housing and other essentials unaffordable. She also wants to see the city do more to promote African American tourism, especially if the revenue could be channeled to help the city\u2019s struggling lower class.<\/p>\n<p>But, it\u2019s hard to change a system that is generating millions of dollars in profits and employing a significant portion of the city\u2019s residents.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a self-propagating, feel-good, making-money system, but it\u2019s had huge impacts on the place that I think are related to racism, hate crimes, and the tragedies that we saw at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church,\u201d Watson said. \u201cAnd unfortunately, I think in tourism, that church will just become part of a larger narrative.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rhetorician Shevaun Watson has taken
