True. But I find more difficult to identify with..let's say Medieval Mali than say this old lady's grandparents.
Time and context.

I'll be sure and put away all my blankets the next time I host a Native American whiskey tasting party...
Hopefully this party is not tied to any type of real estate transaction.

Not sure about the time part.
I would wonder what part you are identifying with... did you know the woman personally? Probably not her grandparents though, right?
There really isn't much difference between how much personal connection you have to that woman's grandparents and former slaves in Medieval Mali, all just history that you gathered from sources.

You should just show up unannounced and uninvited. I'd like to see a photo of Liquesence red faced with embarrassment and awkwardness.
