Great stories, Ennis.  I know there are many more.  Jax needs a Black History museum or a section dedicated to such, maybe at MOSH. It is a rich history that needs to be more "out there."  If only half as much effort was put into such a project as the decades before did to celebrate the Confederacy here.
