People need to chill out.

"They were bringing back the memories of how African-Americans picked cotton,

How old IS this guy???? Brought back memories? Don't think so. Reminded one of? Sure.

Why not instead be proud of what his people came through????

Greg Montgomery, whose daughter China sings in the choir, asked that the song be removed from the program last week.


Will Mr. Montgomery be changing his surname as well as his daughter's? Why not have the courage of your convictions and go all the way and reject the slave name your family has been carrying all these years?
Surely, his ancestors from Africa weren't named Montgomery. Or did they emmigrate from Scotland?
