Triumph or Tragedy

Keysha Sawyer

Just sitting here thinking, way back in the 1800’s there was a white lady named Keziah.  I wonder if she ever thought that her 7th great granddaughter would be black. I wonder did the family had slaves. I wonder what her thoughts were about slavery. I wonder if she hated n#ggers and spit on us or did she think that it was bad and wanted nothing to do with it. I wonder if she thought generations ahead like I do. How ironic it would be if she hated us. But on the other end if she fought against it how proud that would make me. Unfortunately, things like this sometimes will never be known. But what a story on both sides. Triumph or tragedy.

My name is Keysha. I'm in the medical professional and I'm a single mom of two wonderful children. I'm also a writer. In my 20's I was a poet. However, when my children were younger it was hard to write but now that they are teens it is time to get back to my passions which are writing and trying to help people.
