You're very welcome, David.👊🏾😊💙🙏🏽

Exactly.💯 It's important to note that telling someone (or a group in this case) to "move on" is also a form of 'control'; or policing how someone deals with traumatic events.

For the record, it's also dismissive and disrespectful.

You're very welcome, my friend.😊💙🙏🏽

Good morning, Judy.😊💙 You're welcome, my friend. The stories I present MUST be told unfiltered. For far too long, America has only known the whitewashed version of history. It was past time to revel in lies. We take the bandage off and tell the truth.

Word, Brother Eddie! 👊🏼😊✊🏼 The loser Confederate battle flag is intended as a symbol of intimidation against Blacks, Jews, & anyone who doesn’t conform to White Christian Nationalist hate ideology. JCL was legislated away over 60 years ago, but it still needs to die in the minds of bigots. #KeepitWoke

Good morning, Glen! Thank you, Brother!👊🏾😊💙🙏🏽

#KeepItWoke

We all know that Black people are always told to 'move on' from the past. However; the same people who say this to them have not.

Who are these people?

They're very easy to spot, my friends.

They carry the flag from a war their forebears lost a long time ago. 😉

Yep! 💯 It's funny how none of the White people who were part of the child mob could not be found for the interview years later. Many of them are probably in high profile public service positions today—cops, doctors, lawyers, etc.

You're welcome, Jenny.

Good morning & Happy Easter.🐰🐣😊💙

Brother Patrick!👊🏾 There are many racist enclaves such as Rosedale spread out across NYC. Believe me, there are place that I wouldn't go; and I was born and raised here. I remember the incidents in Rosedale well. Many of those racist children are around my age. Most likely still racist. #KeepItWoke

Good morning, Brother Eddie. ✊🏼🔥👊🏼 Queens has a history of anti-Black racism. The president’s family contributed to that, and his policies and actions reflect it. The events in Rosedale are shameful examples racism, prejudice, and hatred. This cycle must end. Thank you for sharing, and #KeepItWoke.

The charges were dismissed.

Bill Moyers' 1976 documentary "Rosedale: The Way It Is" showed America and the world how entire neighborhoods mobilized to keep Black families out — and how children absorbed and enacted that racism.

Happy Thursday Eddie! Great thread as always! #KeepItWoke

Targeting Black folks for being Black folks is racist AF. Yet another reason to pry the Epstein files wide open and start serving equal justice under the law. Thanks for sharing Brother Eddie, and #KeepItWoke, my friend. ✊🏼🔥👊🏼

I sure do, Judy. Good morning to you, Sis.😊💙🙏🏽

#KeepItWoke

The Mann Act reminds us that "morality laws" are only as fair as the people enforcing them. We’ve moved from policing who Black men love to policing how they use their power. Is this progress? Or, is it just a new chapter? 🤔

It will be a follow up to this one. I'll post that one in a day or two. I have something else on deck for next Sunday.

#KeepItWoke

Good morning, Brother Eddie. The early 20th century, in the words of Howard Zinn, “was a time of intense racism in the US…on the average, every week, two Negroes were lynched by mobs—hanged, burned, mutilated.” The Mann Act affirms that. Thank you for sharing, and #KeepItWoke, my friend! ✊🏼🔥👊🏼

Good morning, Trudy. You're welcome, friend.💙🙏🏽😊

#KeepItWoke

There was a lot of fear-stoking propaganda circulating before and after the passage of the Mann Act. I posted one such photo in the thread.

Here it is again, but there were many more just like it.

#KeepItWoke

You're welcome!✊🏾😊💙

#KeepItWoke

Hi Gina! You're very welcome, Sis.😊🫂💙

#KeepItWoke

You're welcome, Sis.😊💙 While researching the Mann Act, I discovered what it's true intentions were—protecting White women, policing consensual interracial relationships.

And of course, Black women were not protected under the law.

#KeepItWoke

The language is not only still the same—it was amended. I'm certain that today, Black women & girls are protected under the law—but not at first.
