    From: Aaron Froland. I recently found out that aprox. 90% of American’s with the surname “Washington” are black! Turns out that the African – Americans looked to WASHINGTON as an example of freedom when they were allowed to have a “surname.” This was obviously a long time ago, but I thought it was amazing!
