In 1911 a mob dragged Laura Nelson and her 14 year old son from Jail. Raped her. Hanged them both from a bridge. Then sold photographs of their bodies as postcards. Her crime was protecting her son and being black
@Sayitpop Just like in my town in Altoona Pennsylvania The firefighters think they're the police because the police give them that authority. The ambulance crew also
@theGrio White people are not going to allow themselves to look at a negro on a $20 bill. They're probably pissed because they just passed the crown act in Pennsylvania which allows us to wear our hair anyway we want to. So wear your crowns black people
🚨 White teenagers in Florida left their Black friend Marquise to drown in a river while taunting him with slurs and monkey noises from the shore.
Marquise couldn’t swim well and was wearing an ill-fitting child-sized life jacket. A kayaking family rescued him as he feared for his life.
He said his “friends” expected him to swim back alone. This kind of racist behavior is disgusting and should be investigated.

PASTOR LORAN LIVINGSTON (@CentralChurchNC): “There has never been a Christian nation, and never will be. You don’t live in one now. A Christian nation wouldn’t have killed and displaced 20 million Native Americans, or thought owning slaves was pleasing to God.”
Cariol Horne stopped a fellow cop from choking a handcuffed Black man in 2006. Buffalo PD fired her for it in 2008 just one year before her pension.
She fought for 14 years. In 2021, a judge restored her pension and Buffalo passed “Cariol’s Law,” requiring officers to intervene against excessive force.
Real hero who paid the price but never gave up. Legend. 👏🏾
Wow. They were able to track down the slaves who built the White House. Y’all can never make me hate what our Ancestors Built.
Happy 4th, Black America! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
