The Forgotten Founders

Julie over at Julie Unplugged has written another of her great UPI religion and spirituality columns. We all tend to celebrate the achievements of those men and women who founded this country and built it into what it is today; however, even in 2006, we tend to overlook the sacrifices made by those who arrived in this country enslaved -- and the tremendous struggles they and several generations of descendants were forced to endure. Julie eloquently touches on this subject in her column, "Every drop of blood drawn with the lash," and I hope you'll read what she has to say.
