"Those That Stayed"
Those That Stayed is a subset of stories, from Grits, Greens and Griots, of African Americans, 90 years of age and older, that chose to stay in the South, despite the inequities. Their stories are seasoned, deep and meaningful reflections from decades of life experiences including first hand wisdom that has sustained their long lives.
Those that Stayed captures their words, like rain in a barrel to give new life to southern roots, inspiring and encouraging the next generation to learn from our past as we build our future.
