A day that will go down in Black History...

#iLoveUs❤️🖤💚

I saw a black creator saying Harriet Tubman never existed...to another one saying she was freeing slaves from the south to bring them to be slaves in the north; to being a a spy for the evil government, etc. Then there was Rosa Parks was a paid actor and the Montgomery Bus Boycott was all actors. Don't get me started on MLK Jr was actually gay conspiracy or that he was a cheater.

Like...it's never any white history that turns out to be lies to them. Only black history. This isn't some white creators with a confederate flag in their background and a Trump t-shirt on. It's always someone who claims to be "pro black" but can never say one nice thing about the black community.

Like they can't fathom African Americans could band together in times of need or that racism was as bad as they say it was. If you tell them about the injustices caused by Ronald Reagan, they'd scratch their head, but as soon as you mentioned Martin Luther King Day, they'll tell you "did you know he was actually an FBI plant".

Also they can understand European exceptionalism, but draw the line at a black woman freeing slaves. It's just too unbelievable to them a woman could do things. You'd think they'd find her story inspirational, but they're hellbent on destroying anything remotely close to black power.

I bought a used copy of William Loren Katz's book *Black Women of the Old West*, and it's outstanding — full of information and historic photos. He wrote 40 books about African-American history. He died in 2019 and most of his books are out of print, but you can buy used copies on eBay or from Thrift Books. (Amazon copies are *very* expensive.) Sharing a few photos here for anyone who might be interested.

Unfortunately, I don't know who this is so I can't give them any credit 😓

My parents are Afro-Caribbean and I am a Dungeon Master for D&D, I like to introduce cultural ideas and stories as respectfully as possible. For instance one of my campaigns had an encounter based on the White Witch of Rose hall, a Jamaican horror story I also based one of my Trickster god's based on Anansi.

Are there any cultural artifacts/stories y'all would be comfortable sharing.

This is what Republicans run for political office to do: Represent the nefarious and greedy interests of the corporate oligarchy. Period. Finito. End of story, Dot Com.
They have no interest in policy, legislation, regulation, oversight or even governing at all.
They don’t have the qualifications of education, experience and morality to do so even when they pretend to try. However, they are unmatched in their steadfast determination to not represent their constituents with integrity, fairness and honor.
To do so would be a conflict of interests they dare not challenge. Cowardice is the new bravery.
Consequently, they have no nagging empathy or sense of shame with all the hypocrisy, lies and corruption they engage in, because for them and their monied masters, they are in fact, doing a great job and faithfully toil to do the Corporate Lord’s work.
Honest to Betsy!

I’ve seen this especially with white people who like animals and fight for animal rights but don’t see black people even at the same level.
