I had heard that this selection has WON NFL NATS in Drama. (Apple Valley HS). Is this true>???? From your memory- has this selection been in NFL FINAL round in DRAMA in the last few years? I know it did well in Duo recently, how about DRAMA. THANKS

Having Our Say was 2003 and 2004 National Qualifier, not certain in finals. Does anyone have the 2003 or 2004 Final Tapes? Or e-mail NFL and check with them.

Having Our Say has appeared in the DI final round several times and the Duo final once. Here are the appearances:

DI
1996 - Jelena Moore - James Logan High School CA - 1st Place

1998 - Allison Mims - Southside High School SC - 5th Place

2002 - Krystyn Spratt - Apple Valley High School MN - 1st Place

Duo
2004 - Britany Turner and Latoyia Johnson - James Logan High School CA - 3rd Place

It's an excellent piece, but it's difficult to pull off well.

To put it simply:

It's about two 100 (or older) year old black ladies talking about their past.

It's my mom's favorite book. Couldn't tell you why.

Synopsis?
In their 200+ combined years, Sadie and Bessie Delany have seen it all. They saw their father, who was born into slavery, become America's first black Episcopal bishop. They saw their mother a woman of mixed racial parentage who was born freegive birth to ten children, all of whom would become college-educated, successful professionals in a time when blacks could scarcely expect to receive a high school diploma. They saw the post-Reconstruction South, the Jim Crow laws, Harlem's Golden Age, and the Civil Rights movementand, in their own feisty, wise, inimitable way, they've got a lot to say about it. More than a firsthand account of black American history, Having Our Say teaches us about surviving, thriving, and embracing life, no matter what obstacles are in our way.
