@archeohistories Who are these so called scholars? Go to land of ancient Kemet and see the work for yourself. I’ve been and I’ve seen. The origin of ancient Kemet is African, its legacy is African and no manner of revisionist history and pseudo science can change what is on the walls.

#OnThisDay in 1970, Mississippi law enforcement officers opened fire on the Jackson State University campus, killing two Black students, Phillip Lafayette Gibbs and James Earl Green.

Police insisted the students fired first, but no evidence was found to confirm this. The killings took place 11 days after the slayings of four students at Kent State University in Ohio.

Author Margaret Walker Alexander, a JSU professor, wrote in her journal, “Thursday night all hell broke loose. The Jackson city white police and a special unit of Highway Patrolmen (Ku Klux Klan in uniform) went out to the Jackson State campus and shot without warning into the west wing of the women’s dormitory breaking all the front windows — killing two students and wounding eleven others — four critically — cutting the telephone wires — shooting into the building where all the wounded girls were shot — splattering the place with pools of blood and leaving the bullet holes to prove where the ricocheted bullets of great magnitude had torn the walls.”

A historical marker memorializes the tragedy. https://t.co/k6XoMELgxx
