Sharpton-Thurmond Connection

Once again, I've neglected my blogging duties because I've been consumed by other activities. In this case, it's the research and media involved with Rev. Sharpton's roots and the fact that the family who owned his great-grandfather, Coleman Sharpton, is related to Strom Thurmond. If you haven't caught any of it, you can find a sampling of articles here (at least for a while). I'll never stop being amazed at how interconnected we all are, often in unexpected ways.

Kim:

Who was Julia Thurmond husband? A Sharpton, I guess, and that's how Colmen Sharpton got his surname?
