Thank you so much, Mariann! Seeing the accomplishments of other African Americans and interacting with them in the community through service has always been the way we have progressed, found healing, and solved problems. This goes all the way back to Africa in the villages. To see both races coming to the table, brings so much joy. It is a privilege to be associated with Lowcountry Africana and cross those bridges.

Your research trip was a blessing in so many ways. I like your insight that "the stories do not have to be my own to feel fulfillment and healing." When you speak of true friendship between the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners, it fills me with hope. Thank you for your reflections.
