"No greater calamity can befall a people than to break utterly with its past. For, if we forget our ancestors, we ourselves might become unworthy of being remembered."
--William Gladstone


I really wish that more young blacks would take time to learn their history--and not just about Booker T Washington, MLK, Rosa Parks, Frederick Douglass. We have so much to proud of.

One of my favorite quotes since I was in college...this quote is one of the reasons why I have stayed in history as my profession
