| Slave marriage taking place. I remember this dance. |
"During the time of slavery, not every hour was a miserable hour. While alone with their families, slaves did attempt to live a regular lifestyle. They cooked, cleaned, and fed their families and made sure that everyone was doing what they had to in order to not get sold. One thing they did to keep each others spirits up was tell jokes and mimic their masters and mistresses. This is what began black comedy within the United States." - Cedric Freeman

| Dave Chappelle's insight. |
"I agree with what you have said; we must learn that if we do not agree with other's lifestyles, do not judge negatively what is seen or viewed. None of us are perfect and communications is very important, in the realization that words can damage if not used in a caring way. We are indeed our brothers' keepers. With that in mind, with "love" and loving someone, you do not have to agree with everything they may say or do, because love is being honest with the individual simply because you do truly love them and not to agree to satisfy them or because you feel obligated to agree; We must learn to be true and honest "BUT" in such a way as to show "love and honesty" in such a way that others see and feel the sincerity within us!!!" - Barbara Tharpe
