how about the those American dollar bills? they are all pictured with former slave owners. i'll be willing to take them off anyone's hands.

cavate (seems like Franklin has a bit of wiggle room).
in 1750 he argued against slavery .
there is a lot history regarding former slave owners, but its above my head at this time..

for me it deserves a fuller understanding of slavery, from early recorded history up to the present.
But I must say here it was not our best of times, and we must struggle to do better.

Doesn't matter. They hate Lincoln, so Franklin isn't safe...not by a longshot.

You brought this all on yourselves. Enjoy it. Revel in it.

Your country is gone. Welcome to USSR pt 2

Why do we need a fuller understanding of slavery? What don't we know? What do we need to do a better job at today?

We tried desegregation
We tried social programs (Great Society)
We tried reverse discrimination at colleges
We allow for slotting of jobs for minorities regardless of ability

What hasn't been tried that we should do, or do better? Is there any chance that both sides have a lot to learn, or is that too privileged a comment?

These are all serious questions and not meant to be rhetorical.

Have to agree with this:

https://www.lewrockwell.com/2020/07/...the-narrative/

“In truth, America has made the greatest effort ever essayed by one race to uplift another. Reflect: In 1954 an entirely white Supreme Court unanimously ended segregation. Later it found the use of IQ tests by employers illegal because blacks scored poorly, then found “affirmative action,” racial discrimination against whites, legal (hardly oppression of blacks, this). An overwhelmingly white Congress passed the Civil Rights Act in 1964, the Voting Rights Act the next year. A white President sent troops to Little Rock to enforce desegregation. There has been an enormous flow of charity to blacks: Section Eight Housing, AFDC, Head Start, hiring quotas, set-asides, sharply lowered standards in police and fire departments. We now have free breakfasts for black children, then free lunches, in addition to outright welfare. In aggregate they resemble a distributed guaranteed basic income.”

Fred Reed is exactly right: Never in history has one race made a more genuine, concentrated and costly effort to uplift and help another race. White Americans not only laid down their lives in the hundreds of thousands in a war that ended slavery, they expanded trillions of dollars since the 1950s to render financial and material assistance to the black community. And as if this was not enough, they even instituted reverse discrimination against themselves in a sincere effort to help black people.

The contention that America suffers from systemic racism is a complete myth. It is propagated by the demagogues on the Left who peddle this lie for political and financial gain. It is remarkable that they have been able to get away so easily with a claim which is so obviously untrue and absurd. And the fact that so many of us roll over so easily before the shameless lie and kneel whenever asked to also defies comprehension.

Places like Mt Vernon and Williamsburg need to be burned to the ground. Williamsburg actually has black actors depicted as slaves - oh the horror.
