Family, as you can imagine, I get a lot of mail.  I wish that I could share more of it with you but I don't know how to copy a Facebook message into a format that you can partake of.  I just received an email from a young brother married to a Tongan woman.  Tonga, like Samoa, is in Polynesia.  He was telling me how the Tongans look like "us" but that the young ladies' parent were unimaginably racist (anti-Black) and did I have any historical info on the Tongans and their relationship with Kmt.  I had to tell him, sadly, that I did not.  These are the kinds of letters I get on a regular basis, from many parts of the world.  Many of them are simply fascinating.  I wanted to share that.
