John Johnson dies

While I am not denying the great things Johnson publishing has done for the black race in america by bringing them to the forefront with his postivie potrayal of them, I often wonder about the man himself: John Johnson.

In my bid to pay the man his last repsect, I often wondered why he had only one child, and not try for another. It is quiet strange for anafrican america to just have one child and stick to one, if moreso, that such a child is female.

The are many theories here. It coukd be that the lady was an adopted child, her mother might have suffered post-natal depression and decided against having more children.

She could have fathered the child outside of the marriage, these was way before IVF treatment. The daughter look very much like the father, and the father might abhor having any more kids, due to the hassles he might have gone through with the first. While he could easily afford to have had more kids, he decided to be married to his career. He did a great job of that wedding.
No matter the situation, the sole beneficiary has proven to be worthy of the the inheritance the publsihing giant left behind. He left his mark and those he left behind are happy of the way he lived.

May his soul rest in peace.
