I think one generation is enough for the individuals in a family to get off their duff, stop whining about the situation their grandparents found themselves in, and do something to make things better for their entire family. Six generations from a former slave to the present is outlandish. That would tell me the people involved have no faith in themselves, and only want to be a part of a greater slavery.... Personally, I think every time someone relies on someone else totally for their 'daily bread' and for that of their children, it makes that person feel worthless. In this country, at least to date, there is an opportunity at every turn if one only wants to take advantage of it.
