Yeah, but the slaves have all died. The blacks born after 1865 pretty much never knew actual slavery. Although being a share-cropper could come pretty close sometimes. But that applied to white share-croppers too.
My point is, I do not feel sorry for blacks anymore for any slavery stuff. Much of where they are today financialy speaking and culturally speaking is due to a near 80% illegitimate birth rate. I feel sorry for the little black kids born into that situation, but that can be fixed a whole lot sooner when we quit making excuses for blacks and blaming white folks and 1619 and Jim Crow for where they are today and start telling it like it is. As my BFF put it, in one of her poems:
Why Is I Po?
A Short Poem
By Squeeky Fromm, Girl Reporter
I wants to know,
Why I is po?
You is po,
Because yo momma
Was a ho!
(A bit blunt, but what the poem lacks in empathy, it more than makes up for in accuracy and honesty.)
