We’re not pitied because of ‘identity’.

As a people, we’ve endured slavery, convict leasing, Jim Crow, white mob violence, plunder etc.

The most powerful country in the world has weaponized itself against its own #ADOS citizens.

There are real & lasting consequences.

And you “keep groups down” by not making them whole.

America has paid reparations to many groups as recompense, the only notable exception being #ADOS.

Is that indicative of our freedom? Or oppression?

It is also peak Orwellian to describe our problems of oppression as stemming from “freedom”.

Reminds me of how war mongers renamed the War Department the Defense Department.

So much freedom in our time here in America, right?
