Hey, we have some American black history in Canada too. The underground tunnel which led runaway slaves to safe haven in Canada. Alot of the blacks in Nova Scotia are the descendents of slaves that travelled through that tunnel.

Didn't Thomas Jefferson have an affair with a slave and they had a child together? The family had to do some DNA testing recently, because some of the mixed descendents of that affair wanted to be buried in the family's cemetary plot.

Stilly - thanks! If my house were on fire and they no longer printed that book - I'd rush back in just to grab it. Anne recently said though that all her books have been a search for God and Jesus and have led up to her new book on the life of child Jesus. I have to read it. I'll let you know if it goes along with her 'best.'

TG - Yeah - I think that happened alot. Lookup The Myrtles on the net - I think it's www.themyrtles.com. It's a 'haunted' plantation where the overseer was porking his favorite slave and she then killed the entire family with a poison cake - only to be hung afterwards. I believe that most black people now have some European genes because they were so mixed.

Think about it. If you owned LL Cool J, wouldn't you climb aboard every now and then? LOL! Sorry - I know that was just wrong, but damn he looked great in that Last Holiday movie! :) They weren't looked upon as mothers and wives, husbands and fathers, they were looked at like property.
