Thank you, Concord Museum, for reprising this fascinating presentation. It is extremely timely at a number of levels. As for the missing genealogical information described by Dr Miles, I wonder whether she has considered approaching Dr Lewis Gates at Harvard (of PBS “Finding Your Roots” series).
I first knew if your book from Clare Hunter’s book (Threads Of Life) and immediately wanted to read it. I am a clothing designer and study mythology and symbolism in Arab women folk clothing Syria in particular. This is a huge opportunity to educate all contemporary women about the cultural roots and significance of women unwritten but sewn history in pain and joy. Love listening to you and your NPR interview was beautiful
All she could carry - One day Humanity will understand. The power of love is the only reason any of us have survived. Why must you persist in focusing on skin color? The crimes you've described have been inflicted on every color / generation. We can't celebrate the end of slavery till the children trapped in sex trafficking are set free. It's getting to be a bigger industry today. Why not dig down to find champions who are the reason you are alive instead of whine about what was made illegal 150 years ago? We all agree it was inhumane. It happened to my people too, Let It Go - look forward. Right about how we can make tomorrow better
