Happy Black History Month! For 100 years, each February we’ve celebrated the Black folks who've shaped our nation and fought for our freedoms. As we reflect on how far we've come, we can't lose sight of the work that remains. The dreams of our ancestors depend on all of us carrying on their work and refusing to be deterred. That's what Black history is all about: the enduring hope, joy, resilience and resistance—truths that resonate as powerfully today as ever before.
Black History Month is a time to recognize the lived, shared experience of all Black folks who have fundamentally shaped, challenged, and ultimately strengthened America. It’s about taking an unvarnished look at the past so that we can create a better future. As we mark 100 years of celebrating Black history, let’s honor the sacrifices of the leaders who came before us, and recommit ourselves to continuing their work.
@Somechick1787 @RepJimBanks You say he was shot.
Where are the injuries?
Where is the medical report?
I’m not denying the incident.
I’m just saying there is a huge difference between BEING HIT BY A BULLET and being the target of a gunman.
@Somechick1787 @RepJimBanks Because there is a big difference between being shot and being shot at.
The man was not shot.
He was shot at.
He has no injuries and no medical record is available.
