    AMERICAN HISTORY ITSELF IS A TESTAMENT TO THE STRENGTH AND RESILIENCE OF AFRICAN PEOPLE. WE, ALONG WITH THE COURGE AND SACRIFICES OF CONSCIOUS WHITE AMERICANS, LIKE VIOLA LIUZZO, EVERETT DIRKSEN, AND MANY OTHERS, HAVE FOUGHT AND DIED TOGETHER FOR OUR FREEDOM, AND FOR OUR SURVIVAL.

    In America, rights are are not determined by what is just, fair, equitable, honest, nor by what Jesus would do. Rights are determined ONLY by what you can DEMAND.

    I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.

    After the last one, it's nice to have a President with a strong spine.

    Too bad it leads to an empty skull.

    President Trump is the most ignorant president of my 64 year lifetime, and quite possibly the most ignorant of all time.

    The Republican candidates were far more diverse. A woman, black man, Indian American and a Hispanic American.

    There is a striking contrast; the Democratic Party of the jackass is full of whacked out lunatics and Marxist lefties, the Republicans, normal people.
