This is American history. We don't learn about this in school, but we can learn about Hitler's history. Because it fits the narrative.

[tonymcdonnly]

Long time ago right ? Problem . I am 64 years old and I have never once heard a public apology made to African-Americans for any of the atrocities and/or maltreatment we've suffered.

[damonwalker]

What gets me is we intermarry with our oppressors? It’s important to know your history.

[Ladylove]

That's why some evil people try to cover up the truth We need to keep seeking the truth for everyone ❤

As a 65 year old white woman, these kinds of historical events make sick to my stomach. Even that is too mild a reaction. Makes me sooo angry! I grew up in an all whie neighborhood, attended an all white grammar school. My parents were devout Catholics who no only preached, but believes that all men, ALL men were God's children and equal in His eyes. I was raised to believe racism was a sin. When i begab encounting African Americans, i had no reservations and befriended several.

Wht folks are still notorious liars particularly those whith authority . .

1920…. Now ask the question. How does that type of vibration go away in a hundred years? It doesn’t!! We must think presently, so that we don’t stay stuck in the mud. 104 years ago isn’t that long ago.

[jeffreychandler]

So very sad, and troubling, what occurred in Duluth Minnesota! To be falsely accused by a couple, and the law didn't' protect the three men! This is history that should be told to all people everywhere!

[marywilley]

There should be entire history courses taught e very year from elementary to high school about the evil that was slavery and him crow and current events as well. Nothing will change until we begin this national education

[vickymensah]

Of course she lied .WHY because she could😮 how many

[MADNEWYORKER]

5000 pilgrims went after 3 brothas!!!
And they have the nerve to talk about blacks jumping them. SMH ✊🏾

[joannkelly]

Somehow, I already knew she lied. They both did.
