Enough plantations had slaves for us to understand that when somebofy white is telling a black person they are on a plantation that's not a compliment.Those that cry victim weasel their way into being "heard out" by government officials. Some of those people are behind the recent "tear down the statues" fiasco, where they think they are removing history. What they don't "get" is that they can't erase what has already happened; they can only learn from it. Question is, are they willing to learn from the past so that the future doesn't repeat the same mistakes? In regards to plantations, not all had slaves, yet the way the word has been slung around, many people hear it and have a negative view of it.
For example,. when we see Jews here complaining about Anti Semitism, nobody tells them they are back in the concentration camps. And even as the majority of Jews vote democrat, we don't see the consistent attacks on Jews just because they vote democrat.
