I guess it depends on how you read it. Wood pile represents family tree you have cut down and are about to burn, family you want to deny. But the truth is if you have family that has been in the south more then 3 generation then there is something like a 99% chance you had a family member that was a slave. I don't deny my past and embrace that history. I just think it funny and sad that others use it to further their agendas. I think it more racist to use this history as a way to get ahead in life. Buy selling yourself as a descendant of a slave you are having others judge you not by your character, but by the color of your skin.
