why are you people trashing a celbration of the end of slavery.
Its history and its real.
We are a DECENT country because we did this
Truth is .. we ain't (eb) all that decent.
Slavery lasted in America long after it was abolished throughout the West .. and, it is STILL legal in the US .. AND, it STILL exists in a different form.
SEE: the Prison/Indistrial Complex .. where prisoner/slaves work for some of the largest corporations in America for about 25 cents an hour. And, thosr prisoner/slaves look a lot like the slaves of our past.
oh hell yeah, but I have to give the people who saw the evil and were willing to fight it even at the cost of the countries exsistnace and their own lives.
It was a real truning point in history in my veiw.
it is a real shame the people on the ground could not all see it as those willing to fight and die and even risk the entire coutries exsistance.
It wells pride in my soul for my country.
we are barely getting to the point they were fighting for all these years later.
It will come , these assholes on the right refuse to help.
But it will come.
I don't spend much time focusing on what the right won't do. I don't expect them to do anything they aren't programmed to do.
The problem I have is what democrats won't do. Not just won't they won't do for African-Americans, but also what they won't do for the country and their own base.
Solutions are not to be found within the Democratic Party .. which is now fully owned and operated by Wall Street.
