The Black Culture Thread XX

Ethnicity is not a race!
I understand she worries about me. But I can't do nothing. Not now.

I'll be getting in contact with folks in Washington DC. There needs to be another walk on our nation's capital.

Why everytime I look in these monument threads there's always someone stanning for the statues to be preserved, as if these statues are literally the last link between us remembering our past lol

History is everywhere. Including in books. History will not evaporate if you remove a statue. Facts still exist. It gives more power to the first mover: 'I planted this statue first, jinks, haha, you can do nothing.'

Seeing Republicans/Conservatives finally denounce Trump's actions is nice and all, but it's silly to denounce what they were building since Obama came into office (arguably long before that). Trump is the results of their "hard work", and now people want to cry about the monster they created doing monster things.

I'm pretty sure someone said something about the GOP creating this orange Frankenstein and it would cost them. But yeah, republicans caused this to happen, even without trump it would have happened. But never would I thought that trump would make it just as worse than we thought.
 
Have any of you been to the National Museum of African American History?

I've been twice. Spent a combined total of around 6 hours I think. Only made it through 2 floors, the top and the basement which were on separate trips.

If you're going absolutely don't rush through anything and expect to see it all on one go. It's worth absorbing it all in slowly.

You're technically supposed to start at the bottom or basement floor as that's basically represents the beginnings of African American people from their roots in Africa and through black history to today. There's some incredible stuff in there that's worth seeing rather than just talking about.

Aside from that, everything else is about a specific part of American society black people have been a part of, whether it's entertainment, sports, politics, or something else.

It's a shame that there isn't really a section dedicated solely for black scientists though. However the wealth of information on everything else pretty much makes up for it.

Its incredible how Obama's tenure and black lives matter have ripped apart the facade of American tolerance..

People literally frothing at the mouth because of their mere existence.

Fam save me. A girl I am sort of seeing is a vegetarian (there is nothing wrong with that), but she just said this: "You can't stop violence if you eat violence" then went on a mad one about people wanting to stop violence eating meat.....

Tell her if she were really about that life she'd be vegan and not vegetarian.

No, see, the racist general statues are just there to help us remember the past, that's why all holocaust memorials are statues of Hitler
Damn, all this fire on Twitter that i need to post to Facebook.
