I ve definitely become a better wrestler because of Kacey. He s much better than Iched over 30,000. Most requests are from the black community. Elder Christoffersn said,  The joy and gratitude they express has been overwhelming to me. We have had people literally weep on the phone as they ordered the CD. The gatitude has been astonishing.<br> There is a desperate, deep desire on the part of all of us to know where we came from, where we all fit in our places and in or heritage. There is some comfort in a commitment to be better, knowing that the sacrifices of the past are responsible for our positions in the present. <br>An inmate leader said,  When we started this project, I had no idea the impact the Freedman s Bank records would have on me and the other inmates. This man told, with emotion, of extracting information of fathers who were sold, mothers who were traded and brothers who were shot to death. One record told of a baby traded shortly after her birth for field equipment. The mother did not even ave a chance to nam her baby.<br>The inmate also said thatother inmates were emotional as they did their work. He told of one inmate who began to weep while doing extractions. He said,  I cannot believe the way these people have been treated. The inmate leader reached out to comfot this crying co-inmate and laid his hand on his shoulder and noticed a tattoo: KKK.<br>The feelings of the inmates who did the work were expressed in a letter sent in 1997. Forty-seven inmates signed the folloing letter:  We anxiously await the completion of this database an hope that people everywhere will se it to search out their ancestors. For most do not realize what it is like to be in bondage. Again, we are thankful for being allowed to serve on this project and do so in the memory of our God, or freedom, our peace, our wives, our children and our ancestors. <brWilliam Alex Haley concluded,  It is a lot of responsibility. When Roots first came out, I had to change my behavior. I had a family reputation to be aware of. Places I would have gone before without thinking about I began to think about. I thought,  This won t look good for my family if I do this so it reined me in. It reined my children in. Knowing who you are and what responsibility you have towards your family forces your behavior to be consistent with your family values. It passes right down across geerations. <br><br>WHO ARE <br>AFRICAN-AMERICANS?<br><br>Joyce King, an African-American who writes for USA Today said,  We are not  niggers. It is not, in fact, OK for anyone - black or white - to use that filthy word or to ignore its meaning. This was in response to a question often asked by whites why it is OK for black people to call each other  nigger as an affectionate term or use the term behind closed doors. <br> Nigger is a gut-wrenching word, explains King,  with the power to haunt some and cripple others. It can t be disdainful and incorrect only when people who ought to know better use it. It can t be ugly when racists spew their rhetoric, but beautiful when someone we admire claims it. <br>King gives her definition: divisive, vulgar, unnecessary, hrtful. It is not affectionate. Not funny. <br>When King went to schoolbvY(l Um1_) *.Y)>(Z~^>@g'"1ʚzh ]:\ 9zvPӀ D'h/exb*cS9Ԃ>BчeL,N T^/p_!av̥}HӺ{-n]KiƯn +m?峱{[znn/K3 rhkkKu{?۽շn쮻-]IܱtMmm|tVD8D+Jlc IrPO{R{7K77wdo-YVS iԴ #Vt F<]`fyg]&qǤXKEnG=<(1p٬ZIAtc]#5 fs,¢I w#{hShv4QzhmK)*ҮepNlomwߏ/ޣZ kmqB>*GwIz=q]8\,3yz~O䷡ךmnwZ{VνP FC7ܭE<.'B*3ܿgK˷ VwfKOi j0`2$}1EXLBZʠ'\;";k&v}ss1)ϲ^t&{>ثqxzisyXj rf{k ǿ ?u՗SEeiuk(XrrƎ?ӖX>ْG֮S%=-5uA ~/u_D<X(6ze[#,x>?'u;ɹy17Fc`l~k@me k=8qgC{DGDB_ &.<VVE?e5?:i5Q+Cy|xw_6ZTI _c{F> WgX[/$٘>&ce!|~m>Xʻӥi?N#v&ukf4b8M:kf5ianD}FPzx_mC*"{HHސKVw\>Sյ{I m-Hc^-o_, :pZj`Fw^tۯoqz,N`XxS{ R_AM4BĔW$>gpKF7li/[sJSG(oLmO-fk$ bƸr=)Ӯn M T
