QuoteProteger, educar, compartilhar da força negra e amar quem será o nosso futuro, pra assim, preservar e perpetuar o nosso passado. A nossa história não está nos, está na música, na literatura, no que foi aqui pelos nossos ancestrais está. E cabe somente a nós preserva-las. Nós por nós e para nós.

Protect, educate, share the black force and love who will be our future, in order to preserve and perpetuate our past. Our history is not in us, it is in music, in literature, in what was here by our ancestors it is. And it's only up to us to preserve them. Us for us and for us.

Significant Discovery: First known Black American family of Kalmyk descent

Takeaways: Be prepared to pivot, even when you think you're on the right track. Be OK with being wrong so you can get things right.

Kalmyks are tribal Mongolic people who settled in Russia. It's estimated that only 300,000 Kalmyk descendants exist worldwide - with only 3,000 in America.
