Some observations: Noticed nice costuming for the wealthy women, and also for Mary in her traveling outfit. Mary is widow of European aristocrat. Saw scene of woman of color curling hair of wealthy woman. One day, the woman of color would not work for free.
More fashion, segueing into medical abilities: Mr. Diggs has a nice gold color of vest. He is a nice man, who learned medical techniques of a physician where he lived. If Mr. Diggs had been white, his abilities would have been respected and he would have been known as having "read medicine" as in Abraham Lincoln having read law and becoming a lawyer.
I have an American History Degree from university. I have also studied acting and theatrical arts. These are my thoughts.
I have studied other wars. They all have in common such things as blood, tears, surgeries and longing to go back home. Regarding the gore and ugliness of wounds in this show, remember that the stage blood is fake, and the moaning and groaning is well done if the actors employ my favorite, The Method.
War over in few weeks? No. Did emancipation happen? Yes, it did. The war ended in 1865. It began in 1861, after the 1860 U.S. presidential election of Abraham Lincoln. The Emancipation Proclamation became official in 1863, having been written in 1862.
Blood is red, not gray or blue.
