I look at photos like this and it should remind us how ignorant racism is.
For Example:
Marcus Garvey led a program to create a provisonal government in Liberia that would help emigrate Black people in America that wanted to go back to Africa.
Then this program of Garvey was sabotaged by the white racist government of America and their black collaborators that eventually led to Garvey getting framed and deported.
If racist white people wanted “negroes” to go back to Africa, why did they impede the progress of Marcus Garvey and the UNIA movement? Why not leave him alone and allow him to carry out his plan???
Some of y'all ain't had to wear the hand me down jeans after they took the cuff out because you were taller than your brother
Lt. Col. George Hardy — one of the last surviving Tuskegee Airmen, a combat pilot who flew through war and prejudice with extraordinary courage — has passed away at 100 years old. And with him goes another living piece of the Greatest Generation. He was only 17 years old when he chose to serve his country. Still just a teenager. Still carrying the dreams of youth. Yet stepping into a world that doubted him before he had ever touched the sky.
At a time when segregation poisoned much of America, young Black pilots were told they were unfit to fly, unworthy to lead, incapable of serving alongside others in combat. But George Hardy rose above all of it. He rose above the hatred. Above the doubt. Above the limitations others tried to place upon him. As one of the original Tuskegee Airmen, he flew combat missions over Europe during World War II with the kind of courage that history can never fully measure. Inside the cockpit, high above battlefields filled with smoke and death, he fought not only enemy forces abroad… but also the injustice waiting for him back home.
And still, he served with honor. Mission after mission, he proved something the world should have already known: Courage has no color. Skill has no race. Patriotism belongs to no single people. But what makes George Hardy’s story even more remarkable is that his service did not end when World War II was over. While many would have already given enough, he answered the call again during Korea. And then again during Vietnam. Decades of service. Decades of sacrifice. Decades spent carrying duty on his shoulders while so many others from his generation slowly disappeared into memory. One can only imagine the things he witnessed across those long years of war. The brothers he lost. The friends who never made it home. The silence veterans often carry deep within themselves for the rest of their lives. And yet those who knew him remembered not bitterness… but humility. He never demanded recognition for what he endured. He simply served. That quiet strength is what defined so many men of his generation. Today, as we say goodbye to Lt. Col. George Hardy, it feels like we are losing far more than a decorated pilot. We are losing one of the final firsthand witnesses to a time when young men climbed into aircraft knowing they might never land again. The world grows quieter every time one of these heroes passes away. Another voice falls silent. Another living chapter of World War II closes forever. Another guardian of memory disappears into history. But George Hardy’s legacy will never fade. Because every young pilot who dreamed bigger because of him… every barrier broken because of him… every life inspired by his courage… is part of the legacy he leaves behind. Rest easy now, Colonel.

White Mob in Florida Lynches Black Man for Requesting Drink of Water
On May 11, 1926, a white mob tortured and lynched a young Black man named Henry Patterson in LaBelle, Florida, for attempting to ask for a drink of water.
Mr. Patterson had been working on a road construction project in LaBelle when he stopped at a nearby house to ask for a drink of water. A white woman who lived in the home saw Mr. Patterson walking towards the house and, frightened by the sight of a Black man approaching, ran screaming into the street.
Mr. Patterson fled the area in fear, but neighbors quickly assumed that the woman had been assaulted and began forming a search party to chase Mr. Patterson down. A mob of about 200 people—which included several local officials and prominent citizens—chased Mr. Patterson through the town, shooting at him several times and wounding him.
For their own amusement, the mob briefly allowed Mr. Patterson to outrun them. Mr. Patterson desperately searched for a place to hide, but as he attempted to jump a wire fence, the mob shot at him again and hit him. Mr. Patterson continued to bleed out as the mob placed him on a running board and paraded him down LaBelle’s main streets. He was still alive as members of the mob kicked him, stomped on his face, and cut off pieces of his flesh to wave at onlookers.
As the mob approached LaBelle’s courthouse, they hanged Mr. Patterson’s mutilated body from a nearby tree.
Though a local judge personally identified 17 white men he had seen in the mob—including a tax assessor, a town marshal, a school board member, a mail carrier, and the son of a county commissioner—a grand jury later failed to indict a single person involved in Mr. Patterson’s killing.
Mr. Patterson is honored at the National Memorial for Peace and Justice in Montgomery, Alabama.
