My Mission is my Project
In 2005, my mother passed away and of course, I was broken. And as I attempted, to gather the scattered pieces of my mind, body and soul, I realized that I had not fulfilled my mother's wishes. This realization, only added to my grief, for I had promised my mother that I would research the stories of my third great grandmother, Mariah.
Mariah was born a slave, witnessed a brutal slave massacre, however, she used her "voice" to fight for equality. So, for the next seven years, researching the stories of Mariah became my mission.
We, my co-researcher and I, have proven all of Mariah's stories. Now, we have made a documentary/trailer entitled "Human Property The Story of Mariah" based on my book entitled "Human Property Hanging in the Family Tree, Yields a Harvest."
I have placed the video on Kickstarter, with the hope of funding this project. Here is my mission and if you believe in my mission then please donate a dollar, pass it on, like it on YouTube.
Thank you for your support.
