BRINGING UP FROM SLAVERY TO 21ST CENTURY
The civil war was fought over slavery many
years ago. Sad but true, there exists elements in America who want to hold onto
elements that came about after slavery: Jim Crow, Lynchings, Segregation, KKK,
, jailings, ownership denials and employment limitations. Over the last century
and a half, some progress has been made grudgingly in spite of those who would
hold onto things like separate but equal, housing segregation, busing
segregation and loan denials. Fast forward to the 21st century, there still
exists a yoke: minority businesses inability to secure work and/or capital,
attempts to alter slavery history, book about slavery denials, woke,
restriction on blacks acceptance at American universities, African-American
program restrictions at public schools, restriction on diversity training and
termination of programs that help the poor for fear it helps blacks advance.

The journey from slavery to the 21st century reflects both immense challenges and remarkable achievements. While the legacy of slavery continues to impact African Americans, the fight for equality and justice remains a powerful force. The 21st century stands as a testament to their resilience, contributions, and ongoing pursuit of social, political, and economic justice.

Slavery was caused by a shortage of labor among rich European powers seeking to enrich themselves in the new found Americas. They solved their problem by purchasing Africans to cultivate the newly acquired lands.
