Could you imagine what it was like growing up on 3 different plantations and having 3 different masters as a child and as a young adult? How would you feel? What would you do? This project will take you on a journey during a time when a little brown girl had to decide to fall in line for survival. It will take you down a road that most people in this century would not be able to withstand. Reminder, we are not far removed from those times, but would you be able to endure the pain? Would you be able to take what came along with the process with the hopes of maybe one day, I’ll be free! Based on true life experiences, remembering a grandmother’s love and duties on the weekends is a memory that is ever so present in one’s mind.
Taurean grew up enjoying his life day by day. He kept the things of importance close to his heart and delicate memories on his mind.
