Thanks. We will be finished soon. I was wondering if you would help with another selection from the long list of works by black writers yet to be recorded. Jim

I am wondering whether Archive or Gutenberg has any books by the authors of these essays in this book.

Robert Moton, one of these here, has his own slave narrative (struggle and escape). Would you be interested in him?

Post by **craigdav1** » October 14th, 2020, 12:19 pm

Most definitely.

Awesome! By the way, my wife grew up in Prince Edward County, one of the notorious racial battlegrounds of the civil rights movement. I went to a college located there and we got involved personally, of course, but also politically. Her father was one of the enemies, that is, one of the white town fathers responsible for closing down schools, one of which was named for Robert Moton. I and my future wife got involved with a government project there called Catch-up, which was meant to help black children who had been deprived of adequate education for five years to catch up.

I can see why you find these authors so interesting. When you post the book in the Launch Pad just add a second post indicating that I will be the MC and DPL.
