NY Did It Again. Juneteeth To Be A State Holiday

[A1aaa]

YOU nikkaS ACT LIKE THERE WERENT MASS PROTESTS FOR MIKE BROWN, FREDDIE GRAY, PHILANDO CASTILLE ETC.

THEY ONLY RESPECT FORCE.

Agree to disagree. Tangible change is multifactorial in nature...many elements, both forceful and ideological/symbolic, contribute to a movement.

they’ve found 4 Black men hanging from trees in the past 2 weeks, including one in NY you goddamned idiot. if a “holiday for state employees” cleans that slate for you then you’re a sad and cowardly piece of shyt who isn’t any good to anyone anywhere.

Gotcha. Let me know how that was implied. If that’s what you interpreted by my response, then all you’ve done here is merely exposed your embarrassing reading comprehension.

In fact, me stating it its a “small” inroad in light of a bigger picture should’ve clearly relayed my point. The fact that this had to be broken down to you says enough about your intelligence.

Not to be that guy but juneteeth is a holiday that is specific to Texas because they we're emancipated on june 19th

The rest of ADOS had been free way before them. It makes no sense for people outside of texas to celebrate it

 

[AlbertPullhoez]

These responses are really weird..



Because slaves were freed in Texas that means black people in other states can’t celebrate their freedom?

Now other states are jacking it? Wth??!?? It’s only exclusive to people in Texas??


I’m certain those slaves and their descendants didn’t all stay in Texas so if black people nationwide want to acknowledge that day, you all are pretty foolish to criticize them for it.

No it's exclusive to Texas cause it's the day when slaves in Texas finally got their freedom.

The Emanicipation Proclamation had already freed the other slaves, Texas didnt get the news until 2 years later on June 19

Yeah and Robert Moses, John Rockfeller, Donald Trump and all those other white supremacists legacies are alive and well in New York State and the entire country. fukk all these symbolic gestures because they aren't fixing racism or changing anything.

doesn’t have to be interpreted. your lame ass gloating about protesters scoring some holiday while Black men are being lynched spoke volumes about you, your intelligence, and your sense of priorities.

The point is that they basically are in a nice way telling folks to "shut up" or an excuse to not do what NEEDS to be. What exactly is a holiday supposed to do? Y'all playing yourselves being celebratory over nothing. We NEED more. Cool for the holiday but that still doesnt change the focus.

Exactly what I thought. I’m not here to teach you reading comprehension...or the concept of events not occurring in vacuum to one another. That’s a failure on part of your education. Hopefully you work on this the next time you step up to debate. Take your emotional, simple-minded takes that way.
