13. Not to mention

Not to mention the 90 Million Native Americans your ancestors methodically exterminated in what was possibly the WORST genocide in the history of the world.........

Trump, along with his Humpers, his white supremacists, his evangelicals, and Republican Party probably want to top that record if they can, not only with immigrants, but with Democrats.........

They can easily top that amount without much effort. Just eliminate Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Food Stamps and a plethora of other social programs........

There will be a lot of collateral damage to their own voters, but they don't care about anything except themselves.......
The end justifies the means...........


Bill Clinton rose up and stopped a massive genocide taking place in Europe......., what other nation has he power to rise up when these psychopaths come for Aliens and us...........

Doubt me? Just picture in your mind the cages and prisons with 40K-60K they've locked up out of sight already..............with the added sadistic removal of infants and children from their parents.........And I understand the private prison industry is all over America building rural prisons as fast as they can........Why?

Keep sleeping people...........

18. Where do you get the 90 million figure from?

Not to diminish what was done to the native people of North America, but 90 million?

I’ve seen best estimates for the population in the early 1500’s at 15 million, tops.

Or are you including all of the Americas, from the Arctic Circle to Tierra Del Fuego?

I still doubt the 90,000,000 figure, however.

Jovan Bradshaw, who teaches at Magnolia Middle School in Moss Point, Mississippi.

I’m proud of that teacher. I hope she gets the kudos she deserves.

6. Thank you for the information

I just came across it randomly and thought it just splendid

[irisblue]

7. Found it!

snip--"A sixth-grade teacher took Black History Month to the next level with a door-size letter to her students about slavery.

Math teacher Jovan Bradshaw of Magnolia Middle School in Moss Point, Miss., covered her classroom door with bright yellow paper and a message (which she attributed to poet and author the Rev. Nadine Drayton-Keen): “Dear Students, they didn’t steal slaves. They stole scientists, doctors, architects, teachers, entrepreneurs, astronomers, fathers, mothers, sons, daughters, etc., and made them slaves. Sincerely, your ancestors.”


snip--"It all started with this little boy in my class,” Bradshaw told WLOX. “We were talking and he said, ‘Slaves didn’t do much because they couldn’t read or write.’ He kinda caught me off guard. I said, ‘Baby, if I snatched you up and dropped you off in China or Germany or Africa even, you wouldn’t be able to read and write their language either. Does that make you useless or any less educated?’”

Bradshaw, 40, also told WLOX, “So many of our African-American students don’t know where they come from. All they are taught is slavery, the servitude side only. They need to know that we were great long before slavery. We built a country with our blood, sweat and tears, and the strength of our ancestors is why they can be great today. You have to see people who look like you contributing to society, and the African contribution is left out at school. I teach math, but I’m woke and I plan on waking up every student that comes through the halls of MMS.”

More at source. And the usual Yahoo comments are gross.

10. If you know anything about Moss Point, Ms , you know

it is a very poor, Mississippi Gulf Coast town. The students at that Middle School need this teacher to help open their eyes to the truth. They need to understand what was lost when the people were thrown into slavery. What was lost can be found but only when you know where to look. Congratulations to a wonderful teacher. She will change lives!

I used to live near Moss Point and graduated in the dark ages from Pascagoula High School.....another small town on the coast practically conjoined with Moss Point.

8. Their assumed inferiority was due to the language barrier.

If you kidnapped a bunch of white professionals today and brought them to a land where none of them spoke the language, you'd have the same results.

[The_REAL_Ecumenist]

19. ESPECIALLY, if you made it ILLEGAL for these STOLEN people

to learn HOW TO READ & WRITE!! So, there's that..

[CaptYossarian]

32. Very true.

[Collimator]

33. Yes, because passing a law against something. . .

. . .is the clearest way to affirm that it is impossible and therefore unnatural.

[polmaven]

9. Perfect!!!

That says it ALL!

[Dem2theMax]

11. It is exactly as you said.

Genius Truth Telling.

Bravo to both the teacher and the student!

28. This is the truth about slavery in our country.

It should be posted, all over the country in every school and library, as it is on this classroom. It say so much about it's legacy. The teacher who posted it on their door, should be nominated for teacher of the year.

[calimary]

29. Thank you!

My two kids went to a school like that in Sebastopol.

Only the liberals will respond, as it already the case.
The racists won't touch it.
