Read the highlight part. To be honest with y'all I been done with #PresidentObama #BarackObama since his second term. We have to put more focus on our local and state government. Those elected officials effect our day to day lives. #NewOrleans #Louisiana #Houston #Dallas #Texas

#FredrickDouglas #July5th1862 #RochesterNY Fourth of July is yours, not mine. You may rejoice, I must mourn. What, to the American slave, is your 4th of July? I answer; a day that reveals to him, more than all other days in the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the constant victim. To him, your celebration is a sham; your boasted liberty, an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling vanity; your sound of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your denunciation of tyrants brass fronted impudence; your shout of liberty and equality, hollow mockery; your prayers and hymns, your sermons and thanks-givings, with all your religious parade and solemnity, are to him, mere bombast, fraud, deception, impiety, and hypocrisy—a thin veil to cover up crimes which would disgrace a nation of savages. There is not a nation on the earth guilty of practices more shocking and bloody than are the people of the United States, at this very hour.
