At the height of his remarkable boxing career, Muhammad Ali (born Cassius Clay), once declared, “I’m glad my great-grandpa got on that boat.”............

There was another black man that said that, he was had a talk show, "The Black Avenger".......loved to listen to him.

If I were of the black, I would be very grateful as well. My husbands family came over, paid for their trip, then put into 7 year servitude anyway as the Ship cap't claimed they did not pay and Gov. Spottswood agreed to the lie in order to establish his German town in VA. That is the way I have read about it.

No grudges though, his people moved on with their lives.

Cromwell shipped my Irish kin over here.

Thank God for that.
