In "Real Housewives of Atlanta" news, Porsha Stewart recently shocked viewers by admitting during a Freedom Trail tour in Savannah that she had assumed the Underground Railroad was a real railroad with trains, according to Reality TV Magazine.

As a guide on the housewives' tour pointed out ventilation holes in the floor of the landmark First African Baptist Church, in which people would use to hide in while escaping slavery, Stewart said, befuddled, "Well, there has to be an opening for a railroad at some point. Because somebody's driving the train. It's not electric like what we have now."

"It wasn't a train. It was a euphemism, baby," Phaedra Parks explained to her, while Kenya Moore later said in a private interview, "It's almost hurtful to watch her be so dumb."

Moore even took to Twitter to express her feelings on Stewart's statement during the episode, writing, "I want to laugh but it makes me want 2 cry...when her grandfather fought 4 civil rights that she bragged about, to not know that there wasn't a literal train! #freedomwasnotfree #RHOA."

Stewart's great-grandfather was indeed civil rights leader Hosea Williams, further adding to the backlash against (and irony of) the 32-year-old reality star for being so ignorant of pre-Civil War American history.
