| Comments |
| "Walking around the plantation, I felt
like I was in Coming of Age in Mississippi ...sitting
on the porch of these one room houses, looking onto the
fields once filled with slaves and then sharecroppers, I
got goosebumps on my arms and legs ...I appreciated where
the energy for the Civil Rights Movement came from."
-Sophie Wells |
| "To look around and to know that huge
families lived in these little cabins, struck a chord in
me." -Doug Toomer |
|
| Sharecropper's erected blue bottled trees to capture
evil spirits. |
