1. Many Black people have mixed feelings hearing “Happy 4th of July” on #IndependeceDay because we are an oppressed class. The irony is, many people in the dominant society you see waving the flags around acting patriotic, could give less than a damn about that flag or America
2. The ONLY group of people in America that does NOT have dual allegiances to other countries or cultures are FOUNDATIONAL BLACK AMERICANS. No one is more patriotic to America and what is REALLY means, than FBA #IndependeceDay
3. Many White Americans have dual allegiances to other society and cultures. That’s why many of these people you see pretending to be patriotic to the American Flag, are the same ones who will switch that flag with a CONFEDERATE FLAG in a heartbeat.
4. So these people in the dominant society who allow and support race soldiers to carry out these state sanctioned lynchings against Black Americans, don’t believe in that flag, nor do they believe in America. They only believe in white supremacy. And they HIDE behind the flag
5. Black Americans are the ones who first died for the independence of this nation. Black Americans SAVED the US by joining in the battles during Civil War because the Confederates were BEATING the Union army before Black people joined the battle. Black Ppl fought in every US war
