Time is erasing one of our most valuable resources ‒ our nation's history. If allowed - the destruction and fading memories of this country's saga would eventually erase her people. Their sacrifices, struggles and stories would be lost, as if they never existed. A covert sanitation of a nation's rich history. What then would be the recollection of those hard times, when fear cast a long dark shadow across this country. Soul searching and fervent prayers would cause these people to lean hard on Almighty God. Recall then, how it was when Americans rolled up their sleeves together, to work side by side. Standing toe to toe with adversity. Steadfast and gritty. Striving above all, to leave their children with a better world than they themselves had inherited. Possessing a voice all its own, history forms the narrative. Telling the tale with eyes that span generations. Marking in succession, the triumphs and tragedies of a people and their country. In historical present, a generational accounting unfolds. Throughout decades of ever-changing complexities, financial strife and war, a family's selflessness and self-preservation prove to conquer every obstacle. Manifesting a tenacious spirit; daily vicissitudes are met with steel like determination. From sunup to sundown, it is all about the fields, faith and family. Dirty hands ‒ true hearts. Sweat, blood and tears form the land from the days of their ancestors. Whose very bones become a part of the earth that thisgeneration must now struggle for. A legacy of survival. No influence coming in from the outside could have ever shaped or molded them. Astutely aware of the dark consequences that would befall them, if they ever stopped believing in themselves and America, they refuse to give in.Before it is rewritten. Before it is forgotten.
