Harsh, right? Imagine being Native and hearing these words read aloud each year on the 4th of July. Another reminder of the racist ideology this country was founded on that is perpetuated to this day. #IndependenceForWho #HowFreeAreWe? . From the company that created this shirt @ntvsclothing ・・・ ✊🏽 Did you know this is how we were described in the Declaration of Independence? This isn't about hating the country or hating white people. It's about educating people. Racists and hate speech isn't something I will stand for on my own social media, so why would I let it slide on the Declaration of Independence? Unfortunately it's the way the "Founding Fathers" described the Indigenous people (some of whom fought side by side to help win the Revolutionary War) and I honestly don't think people know it's in this document that's read out loud every year during the Fourth of July in many parts of the country.
