I was told it was from the German for "stammerer", a reference to how his ancestors were Huguenots driven out of France to Germany, where they were called stammers because of their broken speech. Some four centuries later and thousands of miles distant, my family still bears the marks of that persecution. Who of us are not marked in some way, and who of our heirs can escape the brush of history -- many in ways far more consequential than just a name? If we don't struggle for justice for ourselves, we must at least do it for our children. ________________________________________________________________ The best thing to hit the internet in years - Juno SpeedBand!
