Some RARE photos of the Chicago 1919 Race Riots

[Westcoastnative]

38 people died (23 African American and 15 white)

at least we was laying they ass down too

What I hate is that there was never photos of blacks beating up or killing racist whites during those times.

back when black people of Chicago had pride in self and understood whom the real enemy was(not black Chicagoians don't have those traits today but they are overshadowed and less active than the fighting mandingo bucks destroying their communities) it's always good to learn about an alternative more militant approach of blacks resistance to white supremacy/abuse other than that turn the other cheek,love they enemy and shame them into accepting you MLK philosophy.
