I needed this....and I hope it helps you. ✊🏾💯
Soooo you mean to tell me that someone down your ancestry line survived being chained to other human bodies for several months in the bottom of a disease-infested ship during the Middle Passage, lost their language, customs and traditions, picked up the English language as best they could while working free of charge from sun up to sun down as they watched babies sold from out of their arms and women r***d by ruthless slave owners.
Took names with no last names, no birth certificates, no heritage of any kind, braved the Underground Railroad, survived the Civil War to enter into sharecropping... Learned to read and write out of sheer will and determination, faced the burning crosses of the K*K, everted their eyes at the black bodies swinging from ropes hung on trees...
Fought in World Wars as soldiers only to return to America as boys, marched in Birmingham, hosed in Selma, jailed in Wilmington, assassinated in Memphis, segregated in the South, ghettoed in the North, ignored in history books, stereotyped in Hollywood...
And in spite of it all, someone in your family line endured every era to make sure you would get here, but you receive one rejection, face one obstacle, lose one friend, get overlooked, and you want to quit?
How dare you entertain the very thought of quitting. People, you will never know survived from generation to generation so you could succeed. Don’t you dare let them down!
It is NOT in our DNA to quit!

Each July 4th, America celebrates the words "all men are created equal" and freedom. These words contained within our Declaration of Independence never intended to include Native Americans or African Americans. These words were empty and misleading until this day, June 19, 1865. This day is the day our country declared it intent to be better, to realize freedom for all. It would take another 100 years for the impact to begin to be seen in our society and even more disappointing is we are not there yet!
Teach your children this history. Share our failures along side our celebrations of success. My hopes reside with our youth to do better than my generation and those that came before.
Happy Juneteenth America! The day we expanded our understanding of "All men are created equal" to hopefully one day ring true!
*Note…it wasn’t until 1924 Native Americans were allowed to become US Citizens and have the right to vote but that too was limited and regulated by the states until 1957.
Do not let a new federal holiday fool you. There is still much work to be done. Keep pressing and pushing for change
