@kemjacks Black history is not solely reserved for Black people. In order to implement the changes we seek, everyone is responsible for deciding to address U.S. history for what it truly is. Success is not often cultivated within the constructs of comfort.
@kemjacks@eji_org My hopes are to journey through an experience that will allow for deeper understanding and further development of regard for our history, ancestors, and elders.
@kemjacks Though I’m not entirely familiar with Selma’s history, Black history in the U.S. carries a theme of suppression. Progression of the Black community was denied for some time with regards to voting rights, gentrification, and segregation simply to name a few.
