Roots Recovered: Reclaiming Our Names
Original Air Date: 2/23/24
"Roots Recovered: Reclaiming Our Names" is a documentary from 13News Now that explores the growing interest African Americans have in discovering their ancestral names. The research is a challenge because the names of enslaved people before 1870 were often not documented.

I know the (slave) name of one of my African Ancestors. He was Igbo. He was over 6’5, and his daughter, my great great grandmother Henretta was 6’3! She married a man who was about 5’10 because she said “Otherwise there’ll be no end to my children!”. She was born a slave, but doed free at 99 years old in 1962. Let that sink in! My mom remembers her well because she lived with my grandparents for a long time when she was a child. My mom’s going to be 68 this year. The legacy of slavery is much closer than we acknowledge. She was 6 when her great grandmother passed. She’s now a grandmother and will be a great grandmother herself soon. She’s only 67! I’m 44. I remember my maternal great great grandmother. She was 104 when she passed. I was 17!!! She began having her children at 13. My great grandmother had my grandmother at 17. My grandmother had my mom at 20, and she’s her 3rd child. My mom had me at 23. I’m 44. And I became a mom at 26. My older sister was a teen mom, making my mom a grandma at 41. We’re a year apart. She will be a grandma in a few months by her son. And an African enslaved man named Sip Brown is upon whose shoulders we all stand!❤❤❤ Thank you, Papa Brown, for being the absolute force of nature that was strong and withstood every obstacle that was placed before you so that we can all be here living your dreams of freedom and prosperity in the foreign land that you knew nothing of. You were a mere teenager yourself but you were withstood it all, managed to find true love on the plantation with MeMaw Helena and had 17 living children with her who all were able to live free or be born free. You were able to save because you were a blacksmith and you bought the land that’s still in our family so you could have a safe haven for your children and grandchildren. Your dreams were adopted by your children and my Grandma Henretta was able to educate all of her children through college. Most obtained at least a Master’s degree, but 3 were Ph.Ds! They kept buying the surrounding land and we had the poor yt people coming to pick cotton for our family!!! I’m so humbled by the story of you, Papa Brown. And I’m thankful for that legacy of love, strength and faith that’s been passed to each generation from you to me. You are proud of each and every one of us I know. I have been told by my elders who have heard their grandmother Henretta’s stories of her father that I have his same strength and stubbornness lol. I am proud to be like you! We have the same birthday so I have always felt connected to you, Papa. I don’t know if you picked the date or if it was the actual day of your birth but since I was a child I have always lit a candle on my calendar just for you! I used to require that they sang happy birthday to you, too! 😂😂😂😂 But I know that you live on through us all!❤❤❤❤❤ I’m sorry to anyone reading this long comment. But I had to take the opportunity to express my gratitude to the only ancestor that I know from Africa. I feel like I had to honor him with my words and tell him of all the things that were made possible once his foot landed on the shores in Savannah, Ga. This seemed like the perfect time and place for that. ❤❤❤

EVERYTHING should be free for us, education, healthcare, no rent/mortgage, no utilities, and no paying taxes all in addition to our reparations money of $20 billion each individual Black American, not family unit, but each individual from newborns through the eldest Black person.Parents and legal guardians should not be allowed to spend any of their children's money at all, but made to sign it over to each child on his or her twenty-first birthday unless that child chose to leave home at age eighteen. If a child is a ward of the state, it should be given at age sixteen. Thus, it should be mandatory that all children be taught money management, financial planning, and financial independence in school from kindergarten throughout high school.

Try Church records also ( baptism records) . My elderly cousin lived to be 107 yrs . This was in the 80s , she stated that she was born into slavery and that when a child was born on the plantations , the slave owner's wife would take a piece of rag or brown paper and put the name and date of the child's birth. So on that note, maybe they still have an inventory list 😢. I say it that way because that's how they thought of us. And it is well known, about how america loves to save their trophies. Good luck all the way from Louisiana
