Today is Gabrielle Union's birthday. Let's see in 1972 I was doing what? What were you doing as the country slowly exhaled from the trauma of the 1960's, winced at the sound of the Vietnam War, men wore long hair, Black American pride, and property values were rising, White American's were still wrestling with their emotions around the war, race, and the subtle cultural changes integration presented. The Pequot nation was fighting for soverignity, and Africa was still a deep source of pride for Black Americans, and the United States was enjoying the respect and fear our passports inspired.  What do you remember about 1972? - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories
