(34,648 posts)Just the fact that you called my ancestors 'property' shows just how deeply ingrained white supremacy is in the modern world. Using desesitized language like 'property' to refer to abused and oppressed HUMAN BEINGS is a part of the way the systematic abuse and murder proliferates. Rather than referring to those humans as humans, you chose to refer to them as chattel, a way of dehumanizing their importance a human beings while putting emphasis on the fact that there were merely 'things' owned by some important white person.
While all humans may be of the same origin, not all humans are treated the same, because of skin color.
Yes. The race baiters who dehumanize blacks and attempt to sell a narrative that the problems are all the fault of those loud blacks who refuse to move on and accept their lower worth and value and status as human beings are certainly the 'race baiters' who cause all of this death and these trials and tribulations.
From the time we were stolen, beaten and enslaved, this nation has owed a debt to the black human that it refuses to pay. Rather than pay the bill, they blame the server for asking to be paid. Had this nation given us equality from it's inception, we'd not have these problems this day.
It is not the black who cries out for justice and reparations that is wrong. It is this nation that allowed such injustice for so long to run unchecked that we stand here at this place this day that is wrong.
