Passing down prejudices tragically survives generations

Ann Elizabeth Hemphill

Born in ’46 in Midwest, visiting with relatives in Florida each year, adult years in California. From my early childhood to present, I’ve witnessed the persistence of racial prejudice passed on through the generations. I’m reciting 5 generations, from my grandparent’s to today’s youth. I spend time instructing teens, where, unsolicited, the issue surfaces more frequently than I’d have expected. These views are alive and well, a tradition we carry on into history.
