I look around today and see how young black men are acting toward one another, makes me wonder if they knew what there ancestors experienced. And what was done to purchase freedom. I really hope we move past the display of certain things. They should never have happened in the first place. But to keep them ever before a person is borderline cruel. What do you think?
