We are the descendants of African slaves who helped build this country with our blood, sweat and tears. Blacks came up on the rough side of the mountain, digging our hands and feet into the grooves of an unforgiving wall filled with inequality, injustice, racism and violence. We need to know and tell others what it took to overcome the obstructions setup against us. Meet the Author JoeAnn lives in Houston, TX, but is originally from Milwaukee, WI.
