My Soul Looks Back and Wonders... How I Got Over: A Narrative Account Regarding the George-Kennedy-Anderson-Cathey Collective of African Descent in Ma

In this scholarly presentation, Dr. Penn invites the reader of this significant research on a historical pilgrimage back to the early portion of the nineteenth century, in order to revisit the lineage and inception of the George-Kennedy-Anderson-Cathey family of African descent. According to the author, "It is incumbent upon those of us today who are surrogates of their sacrifices, to remember the toil, the tears, the long-suffering and labor which has been given on our behalf by this esteemed 'Collective' which had its early beginning in the 'slave state' of Tennessee. It is without question a legacy of fortitude and unfaltering faith that we should never forget."
