    “Let’s go home!” oh my gosh if that was not the most incredible simple innocent beautiful thing on the planet then I don’t know what would be. I literally have chills, that was such a sweet exchange! 😭💟

    I like it when Africans tell their own stories. Authentic and original.

    How fortunate to have a place to go visit, many pictures to see, people to give DETAILS, and leads to take you farther back. Reggie appreciates every single drop of his family story and thus deserves everything afforded him in his fascinating journey. Love this.
