Um...maybe their ancestors a few hundred years ago?
“Um...maybe their ancestors a few hundred years ago?”
In the nineties I worked for an Israeli firm in the United States. We were on mandatory overtime and almost the entire floor was manned by blacks. Along came the Martin Luther King holiday, which they all said they’d take off. So, the PO’d director in charge of the floor went around and asked if anybody could tell him what Martin Luther King had done. Nobody could. (These guys were all hired off the welfare rolls.)
My guess is, most blacks have never given a moment’s thought about their ancestors in chains. The ones I dealt with were focused on today; not tomorrow or yesterday.
