Temple men's soccer assistant coach, Armante' Marshall shares his story of black greatness, giving us the story of his great grandfather.
There are a lot of public figures who have left lasting impressions on past and current generations, but when I think of someone who has impacted my life in particular, I can't help but think of my great grandfather, Roscoe Jack Bullard.
Born in 1888, he fathered 23 children and raised them all on his farm in Camilla, Georgia. A carpenter by trade, after the Great Depression, my Great Grandfather was able to purchase 430 acres of land (at three cents per acre), and was able to be a great provider for his family/community from the crops he grew on his land.
