@realdonaldtrump This year’s theme for Slavery Remembrance Day is “We’ve Come Too Far to Turn Back Now.” #WeMustAlwaysRemember #SlaveryRemembranceDay
@realdonaldtrump As slavery is being whitewashed, we must always remember our economic foundational mothers and fathers - the enslaved human beings whose lives were sacrificed for more than 240 years to make America great. #SlaveryRemembranceDay

@algreen.house.gov's #SlaveryRemembranceDay is August 20th.
"... [ #SRD] is intended...to commemorate the victims of #slavery..."
"Such a day of remembrance would prevent the evils of slavery from fading from our collective memory so as to prevent it from ever happening again."

I've reposted all of @algreen.house.gov's posts about #SlaveryRemembranceDay and the #CountDowntoSRD. His resolution died in the House in 2023 without ever getting a vote. If the House GOP doesn't want Americans to know about slavery, let's make sure they DO know about it, August 20, 2025.
For a longer read : Mary Prince’s 1831 narrative illuminates the abhorrent realities of enslavement in the West Indies, fueling the abolitionist cause. Her unvarnished testimony remains a poignant reminder of the enduring struggle for human dignity.
#SlaveryRemembranceDay
“There is a line of heritage and practice that runs from 17th century slave-trading merchants to modern-day tobacco companies.”
Today is the International Day for the Remembrance of the Slave Trade and its Abolition.
The tobacco industry has profited from the use of enslaved people, from the 1600s to the modern day.
