I just re-discovered your blog and I am really enjoying your writings. I thought it was interesting that we are reading about the same things at the same time. I was just reading about prolonged slavery and slave memories. I am a black woman myself and I’m re-educating myself on these topics. What I’m finding is that what I learned in public school…of course…is all wrong. I’m finding so many consistent writings of positive stories from slaves and plantation owners that I’m convinced that so much negativity was mainly to destroy the South, its people and the relationships most whites had with blacks. I can go on and on, but I’ll stop there. I just wanted to let you know that I’m really enjoying your blog.
