Join us for a storytelling time of how Sons and Daughters of enslaved and slavers have met in this day and age around unexpected and unplanned circumstances to be the people of this generation to fulfilll the hopes and aspirations of their ancestors. In some cases, to courageously undo the difficult circumstances that some ancestors helped create.
Matt Lockett and Will Ford III had such an encounter and their story surrounds the undoing of things their ancestors prayed about and they are engaged in during our life time.
Hear the fascinating story of the old kettle pot and how it is bringing lives together
in an unprecedented way to fulfill the wishes of those who owned it many
years ago!
There is a tie to the life of Matt Lockett and Bertram Hayes-Davis that brings us full circle from the actions of the past to the decisions of the present.
All of these stories surround the echoing effects of the Dred Scott Decision which story is constantly updating as the Dred Scott Heritage Foundation continues is research and outreach.
