Some of these nikkas in the community don't know their family past their mother. And a large portion don't know shyt about their side of the family. I have a picture of me and my great grandmother when I was a todler, taken the early 80s. She was 89 at the time. she was born in 1892.. Emancipation was 1863-65. So her mother, my great great grandmother was born into slavery..
When people don't know shyt about their own family lineage, they say stupid shyt. Probably why CACs made some of these stupid mfers the face of the black community. To perpetuate the lie that slavey was so long ago.
