[quote=Anonymous]I am a mid westerner who has lived and worked in D.C. now for five years. Mount Vernon and the slave quarters were eye opening for me. Some of us with ancestors who are immigrants and settled in ethnic enclaves, do have a difficult time with this idea that as white people, we didn't personally build it ourselves. We did in fact lay the bricks and mortar of the streets, railroads, buildings in our cities. Unlike here in this region of the country, where slaves built it! The South as a region of the country, really can say, "You didn't build that." They had slaves build it, and later black domestic help. For other regions of the country farther north and west, immigrants who were poor and not slave owners, built it, too. [/quote]
