This Sunday was my sister Candra's birthday. We were on the road visiting my Brother Eric in North Carolina and speaking with new homeschool families...so we celebrated her birthday on the road trip.
We stopped at Applebees to have dinner. Then my Dad pulled into a Wal-Mart. We had cake and ice cream in the car. While driving I finished,"Having Our Say" in the backseat. I read about the Delany's move to New York City and the hard times they endured. I think Bessie is my favorite Delany. I Like her fiesty spirit. When Bessie heard that Hersheys didn't hire colored people, she would scold colored people who were eating Hersheys chocolate bars. :)
