i also have to add...
when fools nowadays dismiss or downplay the courage, will, hard work and perseverance that mainly blacks had to exhibit in order to affect change... when people downplay that it is disheartening to say the least.
sometimes it's hard to stay positive and be compassionate and easier to say, all that shyt is in the past and i'm all about me...
then one is reminded (as such with this thread) - and if you aren't a total fool and have an ounce of compassion and human dignity, you would feel the pain of those black americans that paved the way for ALL other minorities.
sorry for the little rant, but those images invoked these thoughts.
Peace
