My grandson is bi-racial. As they live next door to his dad’s family most of his out of school contact is with black kids.
He will be 10 in December and not yet ready for it but I am buying him a copy of Up From Slavery so he can at least read a different point of view from a black man who knew slavery first hand but grew up to advise presidents.
Next summer I hope to take him to the BTW memorial here in Virginia.
I need to plant seeds in his mind while he is young.
As you say, God chooses but he gives us choices as well.
That’s a great book. You get someone who could have been bitter, but held his head up and acted like a man.
Good choice...:)
