This Juneteenth I want people to know and remember Alfred Irving who was finally freed from chattel slavery in 1942 and Mae Louis Miller who was finally freed from peonage slavery in 1963.

Slavery was not "200 years ago," the last living former enslaved african american passed away in 2014 at 70 years old.

Chattell slavery in America did not go away, it adapted. It became peonage, sharecropping, vagrancy laws, "chain gangs" or convict leasing, and continues into the modern day prison system and the systematic incarceration of black and brown people and expanded to forced detention of immigrants in modern day America.

Do not believe the common narrative that the emancipation proclamation freed every slave. There are many more who were unable to tell their stories out of shame or fear of harm.

I reccomend that people read Slavery by Another Name by Douglas A. Blackmon or watch the 90 minute documentary / film adaptation

If nothing else please remember the names of the two people that American society wants you to forget.

In your 20s, you'll feel like you're losing the race. It's important to understand that there is no race.

Hate seeing swifties assume When We Are Together is about Taylor Swift and use it to fuel their stupid fucking theories when Matty has literally gone on record saying it's about FKA Twigs, an entire year before him and Taylor Swift started dating mind you. Actually I hate seeing them talk about him at all considering how much they use him being a recovering addict to degrade him and how racist some of them are to gabriette. I'm not squeamish in the slightest, so when I say I've read seen comments about them that make me sick I mean it. Like you people are so heinous no wonder everyone fucking hates you.
