Read a couple to make your blood boil. Read one from a slave that was from Georgia that had to make his way up to Ohio. White People were fukking sick. He told the story on how he was a kid. He had a fever crying on the floor non of the adults could do anything cause they were in fear of being whipped or killed. Lil boy was crying cause they sold his mom off and he saw his dad get his ear cut off and killed for protecting his mom. Cac was taunting the child saying the "little ****** will get over it." I swear god ain't real sometimes about how we as a race suffer. :hhh:




Do you know where I can find some online?? Any links? This shyt is heartbreaking man

always wondered who the musicians were in the clip from Cali circa 1913-1915

(the music being played is not the original music the band was playing)



and I finally found out:
