I'm white. Even at a young, young age I could see slavery was wrong. Then Jim Crow, WTF? And I've wondered all of life how black people in America get up every morning and go out into the world and be treated like dirt. America has yet to admit it's wrong doing to black people, native American people, Asian people, Latinos, disabled people, women, poor people......etc. Now is the time when all that ugliness is on full display with that nasty brute in the white house, to say, "No More!" Truth and Reconciliation Now! How ugly can a human be? We have a history full of sick examples. How have we allowed ourselves to be manipulated into not doing anything about it for so long?
All I can say is, I see it, I see how it has affected every generation since the civil war. It is the epitome of ugliness. Our government owes reparations to every group it has subjugated. Which is all most everyone, but rich males. How can such a small number of men control so many people? It's time we bind ourselves together and say, No Fucking More! We are the many; you are the few.
