They killed indiscriminately and yet cacs were telling us that Nat Turner was a monster because he did the same thing:stopitslime:

To be completely honest. White folks have ZERO credibilty when talking about racial violence. NOW that doesn't mean everyone else's hands are clean. BUT, they have to hold that. And the fact they act like "Oh this was so long ago" etc...fukk that in the grand scheme of things 100-200 years isn't a long time ago. My Grandfather was forced to buy a hat buy a police officer in a woolworth in like the 60's simply because he tried it on.

Add Wilmington, NC to the list too.


In fact do a google search on African American massacres and _____________ whatever state you live in, especially beachfront property. I have some students doing a project identifying massacres in states around the U.S.
You’ll be surprised by what you find and not just in southern states either.
