This is why they are trying to whitewash our history in a many cases, erase it and pretend like it never happened, but we know what happened. We know the bigotry, the cruelty, the murder, the rape, and we will never forget.

The fact that things like this are hidden instead of taught is crazy to me , I’ve learned so much on my own than in a class with a book that isn’t accurate at all!!! The books they teach out of are incorrect !!! I’ve wrote letters , I’ve emailed ..no one cares y’all !!!! Why not teach the truth …it’s actually awful but it’s truth !!! And do you know how many black inventors there are ??? Do you know a black woman invented air conditioning?? No of course you didn’t !!!!! And that’s a damn problem !!! I’m sorry it’s just very frustrating for me I was lied to as a child a lot of people were and if I would have just went along and not questioned it (bc I’m a problem ) how would I think ??? Would I view things the way a lot of people do ?? The shit is scary to me !!!! It’s like brainwashing fortunately I was able to teach myself …sadly a lot just listen to what they are told

Please don’t let this divide us anymore! PLEASE! The enemy wants us to hate each other. Politicians wanting us to look one way. While they flipping the switch on the other side. I’m 55.. I have never anyone that committed any hate crimes. At least knowingly.. if we can just come together somehow and face the real enemy. We would be unstoppable. Sad thing is… THEY know that!!

I sob from deep within my soul, carrying the weight of what my black brothers and sisters have gone through from the beginning of time my soul is heavy and shattered, but don’t get me wrong. I don’t have hatred for anyone because they were a lot of white people that gave their lives protecting African-American people so I love all people that would love me. I just wish I didn’t have to live like this surrounded by hateful people that don’t even know me.

This story shatters my soul. I am going through deep racism against me where I live at in Livingston, Texas at the hands of neighbors that’s mentality stems from 1865 and they’ve been abusing me my wife and my son ever since we moved there the racism in this town is very thick 30% of every race here hate each other for no reason at all they found out I was Puerto Rican The harassment began, and is still going on for the past two years. I am heartbroken, but these brothers inside this picture went through that and all my brothers and sisters that are African-American Puerto Ricans minorities have suffered in this country and we continue to suffer. I wish people would just stop being so hateful and just love each otherbut that’s never gonna happen.

Wasn't now. Wasn't you. Wasn't me. Unity is what we can have now. it's right there in our palms but we just won't grasp it. like we are afraid it will brand us something distasteful or label us a traitor. I am not a traitor for wanting a better place and time without that in it. but we have to let go off it and work at something good to make it better...

Why was this done? This is the history that the administration wants taken away cause it makes America look bad. But it’s true. Tell it all just like you want the good to be told tell the bad. If you feel bad you should. Then maybe you won’t be so quick to repeat bad behavior. That’s why this administration wants to shut it down.

My God created all that is and my God doesn't make mistakes. So by saying a man by a different color is a mistake is you saying my God did make a mistake. I would love to be there on the day you stand in front of God and Jesus to explain why you should be allowed into heaven. Go ahead tell him again how he messed up. Hope you like hot weather.

I remember my uncle told me about this' when I was a young man ' how cruel and evil the way' Americans treated other Americans ' just because of the color of there SKIN ' I was 10 years old when he told me this story ' and I wept' like a child should have ' I'm an afro Rican ' so I took it personal as a child growing up in the lower East side of New York in the early 70' s . BUt really racism is as real as ketchup on your hot dog ' and I feel like today we are heading back down that' rabbit whole all' over again ' with' this current administration that is in office. my brother's and' sisters please stay alert and be safe out there 🙏 God bless our freedom.
