Melungeon Voices

sometimes on our journey toward ourselves we have to look for our ancestors if your ancestors were Melungeon that can be difficult what do you tell people and the legend is it's a it takes a half hour just to explain what people think the Melungeon might be well I don't have any other reason to think that there anything else to Portuguese it's a cover story for African heritage my sixth granddaddy Andrew may have been a pirate up and down the East Coast my mom always referred to herself as black Dutch there's no mystery as to who the margins are the Indians that in some old tax records you'll find them sometime this free man of color they left their genes they left the culture and we we are fooling ourselves if we don't think that they're here it's kind of like hearing a cry from the grave and then trying to decide whether or not to answer you
