Martha "Mot" was my great grandmother she was my grandfather's (Arthur Hayes) mother. Today 7-4-2020 is Independence day however I feel the way Frederick Douglass did when he was invited to speak on the fourth of July. "What to the Slave is the fourth of July" this is yours not mine". I'll mourn today in honor of my great grandfather and his mother. I've become their wildest dreams who I am what I've accomplished in my life is all because of them. Because of them I can get through this racist scary time we're living in today
