  1. I prefer to not stand by ignorant ass black folk. If they can admit that it was Africans who was running the slave trade. I'm done with a people who constantly lie. The Irish were the first slaves in america. And the black community refuses to admit the black k slave owners. So no I have no respect. And that's hard cause I have African blood and it shames me to no end on that note

  2. Does this moron realize the entire world even in Africa? Was a racist ball of crap against mini races. The United States is the country that changed the world on race issues. The United States is the country that fought a Civil War over race issues. Africa slaughters millions over tribal differences even in the modern day. Ignorant about history and it’s inexcusable.

  3. Juneteenth should be a day of celebration of freedom. A day of positive thought. We don’t celebrate the Fourth of July and talk about how bad the British were. A never-ending victim mentality. It’s not a way forward. 600,000 Americans died in the Civil War. Juneteenth should also be a day to remember that.

    You claim to have this deep culture but you NEED everyone else to do most things for you!

    YOU are your own worse enemy. You glorify illegal activity, one or no parent homes, and that an education is for uncle toms.

    And please don’t think this Jones dude in anyway supports you. He, like the dem party, needs you to be victims so they can use you as a platform to line their pockets.

  6. Everyone in America benefited from the black struggle, my mother was born in 1921 the granddaughter of people that were in bondage!
    She lived through Jim Crow, the Civil Rights Movement and she died during black lives matter! She said it's never ending it could be exhausting , but stay on course! My mother danced when Barack Obama walked in the White House! Stay the course👍

  7. Is there anyone on the planet who doesn't know about slavery in america. Blacks can't shut up about it. Slavery existed all over the world and for a lot longer than in the US. If you are really concerned about slavery go to africa and the Middle East, where it still exists today and protest …
