The National Archives hosted a Blog Talk Radio program with Black Roots Researchers, featuring Syd Nathans and the story behind "A Mind to Stay". It also features three wonderful people who have traced their families back to the Stagville plantation in North Carolina, where his book's story began. The program captures their intrepid detective work, how they found their way to Stagville forebears, and how they also discovered each other--and Nathans. You can listen here.
