Let me introduce you to my Mamaw and Papaw. The were the first know touring African American country duo in a time and place when this was frankly probably dangerous. This originally scared my grandmother but my grandfather was so charming, funny, and shrewd he would often win over the crowds. I've been counter cultural and uninterested in race bating long before I knew this information. It's in my DNA! Wish I could have better used the little time I had with them. Don't let your relationships with your grands atrophy. There is a lot to be gained from understand your roots.
