and d. trump has threatened that with his rally and anti-trump protests that he will, as he has dog whistled to his followers, threatened another race massacre in the same towns' African-American community that suffered the worst race massacre ever in America in 1921. 6000 interned. 15,000 left homeless, over 300-3000 dead, wounded or missing African men women and children. 800 hospitalized, men, women and children! 35 square blocks destroyed by attacks from private planes, the first attack on an American city by planes and burnings on the ground. Private planes! The suffering that racists caused cause on those two days of white rampage is unimaginable, yet with the person called d. trump telling protestors that they won't get off as easy as they did in other recent protests, his words, he is implying just that, another race massacre by 'his very fine people'.

This person called d. trump is one of the most disgusting despicable human being on this planet. And anyone that follows him IS THE SAME TYPE OF RACIST.

For many years historical texts and references to this massacre were heavily suppressed and even removed by white historians. Juneteenth is the fact that after the Emancipation Proclamation Texas kept slaves after official freedom was granted. And out of the goodness of their hearts finally let Black people go free. What hypocrisy. What disgust I feel as to what the Electoral College gave us as a POTUS.

What a fucking coward. He'll even threaten the health of his cult to get what he wants.
