Someone said, “Imagine your history being so horrible you want to ban people from learning it.”

Marinate on that.

You enslaved innocent Black men, women, and children. You murdered innocent Black people. You raped a nation of its resources for your profit. You lynched Black people and took pictures smiling as their bodies hung from trees.

You raped Black women while your wives pretended not to see. You bought and sold Black people for your financial gain. You continue to profit off the backs of Black people. You continue to profit financially from slavery.

You stole land from Indigenous People. You relocated Indigenous Tribes leaving them to suffer from disease, exposure, and starvation. You sent innocent people to gas chambers.

You performed medical research on Black people without their consent and withheld treatment. You sterilized Indigenous and Black women without their knowledge. You stole human cells from a Black woman and used them to advance medicine and your profits all without her consent.

You turned your back on America and bombed American citizens. You walked into schools and slaughtered innocent children. You sent tainted blood to foreign countries for profit. You drove a car into innocent people, injuring many and killing one.

You murdered innocent Black people in a church as they prayed. You slaughtered children in schools. You walked into grocery stores and murdered innocent Black people.

You have committed some of the most heinous, egregious crimes against humanity and that is who you are.
And I know it ain’t pretty. But sometimes the truth doesn’t come decked out in lipstick, eyelashes, and stilettos. This is who you are.

So when they don’t want to speak about teaching REAL history please believe it is because they don’t want the truth to be revealed. But be assured your sins will find you out.
