I was trying to get people to feel slavery. I was trying to get across the kind of emotional and psychological stones that slavery threw at people. Octavia Butler Descendants of New England pioneers are proud of their ancestry and glad to proclaim the fact that so far as the United States are concerned, New England is in deed the cradle of religious liberty. Paul Harris Maybe if I go far enough back into my ancestry, I have African roots or something. I've got no idea. Mick Taylor |
