From Slavery to The White House
Michelle Obama's great-great-great grandparents grew up being slaves, her great great great grandmother was sold for $475 in North Carolina by a slave owner in 1850, she was born in 1844 and died in 1938. Now, the Obama family is being recognized all over the world because of what they have done to help the country in some ways. Michelle's mother now lives with them in the White House, her family has come a long way. From being slaves long ago to being the first african american family to be living in the White House. My opinion of this would is good because they have came a long way, and her family has gone through a lot through the past decades. Which now means they conquered some great things like being the first african american president family in the white house.
