thank you Sonia. waited a little while for a response from someone here. As a senior member, we don't know what you think. The slave days are a past we don't have. I am 55. My gggrandparents went thru this. I don't know your age but my 1st family reunion was started by 'myself, because I wanted to know my people. Start your plans for a reunion and maybe someone in your family will KNOW it's time to talk to the young people in the family.And if no one is successful in getting the 1st one started, save all your ideas for the future. You just may be the 'griot' in the family who brings things together. It might not happen until you are a Senior member of the family. I'm going to try that one. Are there anymore young ideas out there. I am Listening.
