Speaking with relatives about family history, I am often told to keep this piece of information between you, me and the gate post. Respecting sensibilities, I will share my family stories entwine with historical events from Copiah, Jefferson and Lincoln Counties, Mississippi, from gate post to gate post.

Those were some sad times but full of hope.
Hope, something that is missing in a portion of our community.
Thanks for sharing the wonderful link. I learned much about Medgar Evers from listening to it.
