You ask, "Why don't they know...Thank you! You ask, "Why don't they know their history?" For the same reason that most Americans do not know America's history because for hundreds of years, those in control of text books have methodically suppressed true history. Only recently was I introduced to Stephen Mallory and how his asylum helped to begin the asylum of run-a-way slaves (as contraband) in forts....maybe, in a sense, the beginning of emancipation! Has anyone searched Fort Monroe records ( if there are any) for information about Mallory and his two companions? And, has any attempt been made to find any of their relatives?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
