Today in 1946 WWII veteran Maceo Snipes was shot in his back by the KKK the day after he became the first Black person to cast a vote in Taylor County, Georgia.
After he was shot, Mr. Snipes walked three miles to the hospital with his mother. For six hours doctors left him waiting and bleeding. By the time he was seen, he needed a blood transfusion. The doctors said the hospital had no “black blood.” Snipes died two days later.
This is why I will vote in every election. The day I stop voting is the day I stop breathing. #FreshVotesBlue #BlackHistoryWithLana
man work is so hard you can just do a good job consistently and show up and not miss deadlines but the second there’s a small error you’re in big trouble 😭
highly recommend pet insurance. barnabas’ two expensive claims this month were just approved, covering 90%! great customer service. why can’t human insurance be this easy?
