    I can't imagine being in Easter or Lizzy's situation. I'm not just talking about slavery and plantation owners. I'm talking about one woman being the actual love of his life and the other woman being a wife that he doesn't really love. Each woman wishes they were the other woman because they don't know that the grass isn't greener on either side.

      No problem. Just know that most of the children like Princess were the results of slave women being raped by the slaveowners. Rape of slave women was an everyday occurrence on those plantations. That is why the Black race have so many people who have the features of White people in some form or another.

      All true insight is given by the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob!
      God continued to bless so-called America because of her captives.
      These captives are now deceptively called Black Americans or African-Americans
      when actually they are the true Hebrew descendants of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and his 12 sons!
      But now this blessing is turning to curses through severe weather and natural disasters..
      because of the brutal mistreatment, racism, unfairness, false accusations, false arrest, and butal enslavement of these so called American Black Natives / human people!
      So called America is the TRUE land of the Bible!
      89% of White America and 100% of distant nations (Africans, Europeans, Asians, Latino, Middle Easterners, East Indians) know who Black Americans truly are,
      but they pretend NOT to know to keep the deception intact.
      So called Black Americans, who really are the true people of the Bible, are the only group who do not know who they truly are because of lies and deception.
      They are told that they are from Africa,
      but this couldn't be further from the truth!
      All Africans know that so-called Black Americans are not African, although Africans may pretend otherwise in order to replace us as a migrate here to so called America for financial gain called Reparations!
      Thinking that all Black people come from Africa, is akin to thinking that all White people come from Sweden.
      Please do not fall for this trickery any longer.
      .......
      All true insight is given by the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob!
      Black people please leave the South!
      Move North of Kentucky...
      while staying East of the Mississippi River.
      Please remember all large cities are dangerous for us
      because this is year 6 of our 7 year Great Tribulation!
      Silent race wars are happening everywhere!
      This is why so many of us are being "so called randomly" murdered!
      Its not random!
      ..Its annihilation!
      Those that kill us will not be punished!
      pray to GOD (Jesus) for protection daily.

      Roots and Queen are both great series, but ya'll do know that Alex Haley was sued for plagiarizing Roots, so I'd have to assume that Queen is also fictitious. Both are beautiful, and if Roots is indeed plagiarized Alex Haley made it a great success. The original author couldn't have made them the classic series that Alex Haley did.

    Through extensive research, my cousin recently found out that our great-gr-gr grandmother was a biracial woman who came to the area we live now from NC after the civil war and passed as a white woman. Her mother was a free woman of color. The laws at that time said that the children of such women were to be indentured until they were 12 yrs old and our gr x3 grandmother and her siblings were. It’s been a fascinating history to learn. None of us knew! I think stories like Queen’s, and stories like my foremother’s are more common than we think. Full of tragedy but also a fully American story, with all the good and the bad. I’m glad Alex Haley told this story.

    Through extensive research, my cousin recently found out that our great-gr-gr grandmother was a biracial woman who came to the area we live now from NC after the civil war and passed as a white woman. Her mother was a free woman of color. The laws at that time said that the children of such women were to be indentured until they were 12 yrs old and our gr x3 grandmother and her siblings were. It’s been a fascinating history to learn. None of us knew! I think stories like Queen’s, and stories like my foremother’s are more common than we think. Full of tragedy but also a fully American story, with all the good and the bad. I’m glad Alex Haley wrote this.
