African American relationship with the South: a dual perspective Introduction The experiences that African Americans went through, whether in the North or South, played a significant role in shaping their attitude towards the New World.

The Power of Perspective All I needed was a bow tie. Everything else was packed, and I was ready for the weekend, except that I needed a new bow tie. I assumed that some store on Boston’s posh Newbury St. would have one, and sure enough I found a store that sold tuxedos and wedding dresses.
