"My grandfather belonged to Thomas Jefferson." He says it so casually. This is what life was like for generations of human beings!! These recordings really help bring life to a story we've been told about so many times that we've become numb to it. Thank you for sharing!

Yes. One of my ancestors was interviewed, but I can’t find the audio. Maybe I’ll resume my search for it. Thanks.

Zora Neale Hurston was also an anthropologist - and used this formal training when she worked on this project

Zora Neale Hurston is the only author who stood out to me in school. Their Eyes Were Watching God is still my favorite book by far

It’s difficult to listen. There is sadness, then rage, then healing then inspiration to act, to create, to live honorably. Thank you for sharing.

As a BW these recordings are so hard for me to listen to I just want to cry listening to them. But I’m glad they were able to tell their stories.

We cannot forget this. We cannot let this disappear. History is about learning. And never repeating.
