"This is still a country divided between the families of the enslaved and the slave traders," said Olabiyi Babalola Joseph Yai, a professor of history and linguistics who taught for years at the University of Florida and worked for UNESCO in Paris before returning to his native Benin. "But the elite don't want to talk about what happened here."
The caste system in India divides people. Pretty much like the 1619 project. So while I don't think there was a benefit to slavery, if we do a 180 and go 1619 project and teach kids that our system is inherently racist, the only "fact" is that people will be divided.
On the one hand we should not ignore history because slavery existed, but on the other hand we should not say our system is racist and whites are inherently racist and blacks are inherently lessor in the strata of society because omfg the fucking personal liberties some asshole took with their opinions to make this shit up defies the fact that without our individual freedoms, they wouldn't have the individual freedom to MALE UP THIS SHIT.
It's like they took puzzle pieces from the edge and jammed them into the middle and said it doesn't work. Um, no. You fucked up. YUO don't work. You aren't woke or factual or a social justice warrior. You are an upstart, look at me whining for spotlight attention whore craving bitch while fucking up a country as much as you claim Trump does because making people hate each other is pretty much not fucking cool you twat dangle.
Lily, not you a twat dangle but the 1619 originator(s) is/are twatdangle(s).
For them to say the system is inherently racist would be like me saying we should teach kids that if europeans never settled America and formed the United States, then the Nazis would win and no Jew would exist today.
THAT'S NOT FACTS. THAT IS ONE OPINION FROM ONE PERSON.
I don't know what your race is. I will assume white because of 60% of Americans are Caucasian. Will you acknowledge that others, let's say indigenous people, may have a different experience than you?
