My Acoustic album "Grandfather Courage" is out now. Buy or listen to it here: https://orcd.co/fngc Grandfather Courage is the reimagined acoustic version of my album White Jesus Black Problems. These albums are the story of my seventh generation grandparents Elizabeth “Betty” Gallimore and Grandfather Courage. Betty was an indentured, white Scottish servant and Grandfather Courage was an enslaved African man. My Grandfather was listed as a man with no name so I felt like I needed to give him his credit and a name, Grandfather Courage. The two formed a forbidden union during the time of slavery in 1750s Virginia. If they can make it, what’s our excuse?
