I want my great-granddaughter to have a fairly good understanding of the world in which I lived for 81 years and also the world before I came into it - all the way back a hundred thousand years, to the beginning of our species.

I am the me I choose to be.

So I'm OK with myself, with history, my work, who I am and who I was.

I had learned something of Miami from people who had visited there, so I knew what to expect.

I was fortunate enough to have been raised to a certain point before I got into the race thing. I had other views of what a human is, so I was never able to see racism as the big question. Racism was horrendous, but there were other aspects to life.

I'll always be chasing you... Glory.

I decided in my life that I would do nothing that did not reflect positively on my father's life.
