This original piece (by none other than myself—apologies for being redundant there), in my opinion, should be a topic of discussion at the dinner table in every (so-called) African-American home this February and beyond.
The piece begs the questions:
- Who were they?
- Who are we?
- Who am I?
Please enjoy and as always, leave your comments in the comments section below.
