Black Wide-Awake hit 5,000 posts today, y’all. (This is number 5,002.) Who would ever have thought there’d be so much we could learn about the African-American families and history of a single, small, eastern North Carolina county?
Thank you all for the comments, questions, suggestions, corrections, and encouragement. On to the next 5,000! (May one attest to victory at Vick Cemetery!)
BELLS AND WHITSLES…….DJEMBE DRUMS AND CYMBALS!!!!!
Thank you, sensei!!!
& I hope you go for 5000 more!!! I’m a 16 year old boy so interested in “Lane Street Project”. Ms. Henderson, thank you for being such a blessedly spirit. The City of Wilson is rooting for you.
Semaj, your comment is best thing that happened to me today! Thank you! I hope you’ve had the opportunity to volunteer at our clean-ups — there are so many ways to help. I’m cheered to know you and others are rooting for me — I’m fighting for all our ancestors!
Congratulations on your milestone! Your posts are enlightening and educational. Thank you for your hard work with the cemetery and your posts.
