Let’s pick off the scab of slavery every year from now on. It does not serve the democrats for any healing to occur.

[Red Badger]

“There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs — partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.”
― Booker T. Washington

So since 1865 is the date 'marking the end of slavery' in the United States......then Martin Luther day just got thrown under the bus.
