What?!

Today my brother Jonathan flew in from Atlanta and we shared coffee and dinner and more coffee. He's really quiet so I got to talk a lot and we started discussing our family and the ownership of slaves in the past... this is all news to me. And quite shocking, since it's been something that was never mentioned in my family. I realized that the slave I am doing the project about (named Henry) is also the name of my great-grandfather. His namesake? I wonder.
