Can someone please tell Mike Pence the WHITE Founding Fathers did not believe Africans we’re human beings? Can someone explain to him the definition of chattel slavery? Can someone please tell him his “the Founding Fathers believed all men are created equal” argument is bullshit because females and Africans were not considered men or human?!


Asked repeatedly to say 'Black lives matter,' Mike Pence says 'all lives matter'

My hometown has been celebrating Juneteenth as long as I’ve been alive and even longer.

But according to Supreme Idiot Ruler Donald J. Trump no one heard of Juneteenth until he talked about it.

Okay then.

If no one heard about it before then how did he find out about it?

The lack of critical thinking skills & logical thinking in the Puppet King’s mind is not only laughable it is SCARY.

This is YOUR president MAGA Sheeple!

I remember you said you are vegetarian.

I forgot to tell you to limit the amount of cruciferious vegetables you eat — broccoli, cauliflower, cabbages.

Chinese medicine says these are bad for the thyroid gland.

Christian, you have an unfortunate Told Ya.

Corona is on the rampage.

According to NBC Nightly News, the state of Florida has run out of ICU beds.

Several members of Trump’s campaign staff & 2 Secret Service members tested positive for the corona.

Officers removed a white woman who wore an “I Can’t Breathe” shirt from the rally site, claiming she was interfering with police. I’m watching the news report as I type this. That woman did nothing wrong. She was peacefully protesting.

Christian, will the American Psychological Association recognize a new mental illness known as MAGA Delusional Disorder?

Thank you for making me laugh!

I’m not really back. I got bored & couldn’t sleep. I’m doing a little bit better. We’ve had nonstop rain for almost 2 weeks. River has been at flood stage for several days. I don’t do well in this type of weather.

I had to unplug the WiFi.

Man, y’all have kept up the outrageous comments!

I also want to give a shout out to Diviner21. Y’all should get a consult for entertainment purposes only! ; )

Glad to hear you unplugged the damn Wifi. Yesterday, I mounted my new Roku smart TV in the living room, out of the bedroom. I slept very well last night too. Dirty electricity be damned. Good to know you enjoyed your astrology session. So did I, you're a delight T.W.

What is the Juneteenth celebration about?
T. W. said…
Chick’sOpinion, it’s wild! The slaves in Texas did not know they had been freed 2 and a half years before the news reached them. I’ll provide links & excerpts:


1) OFFICIAL WEBSITE — https://www.juneteenth.com/

EXCERPT


Juneteenth is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States.


From its Galveston, Texas origin in 1865, the observance of June 19th as the African American Emancipation Day has spread across the United States and beyond.


Today Juneteenth commemorates African American freedom and emphasizes education and achievement. It is a day, a week, and in some areas a month marked with celebrations, guest speakers, picnics and family gatherings. It is a time for reflection and rejoicing. It is a time for assessment, self-improvement and for planning the future. Its growing popularity signifies a level of maturity and dignity in America long over due. In cities across the country, people of all races, nationalities and religions are joining hands to truthfully acknowledge a period in our history that shaped and continues to influence our society today. Sensitized to the conditions and experiences of others, only then can we make significant and lasting improvements in our society.



2) What Is Juneteenth? by Henry Louis Gates, Jr.
The First Juneteenth


EXCERPTS


When Maj. Gen. Gordon Granger issued the above order, he had no idea that, in establishing the Union Army’s authority over the people of Texas, he was also establishing the basis for a holiday, “Juneteenth” (“June” plus “nineteenth”), today the most popular annual celebration of emancipation from slavery in the United States. After all, by the time Granger assumed command of the Department of Texas, the Confederate capital in Richmond had fallen; the “Executive” to whom he referred, President Lincoln, was dead; and the 13th Amendment abolishing slavery was well on its way to ratification.


But Granger wasn’t just a few months late. The Emancipation Proclamation itself, ending slavery in the Confederacy (at least on paper), had taken effect two-and-a-half years before, and in the interim, close to 200,000 black men had enlisted in the fight. So, formalities aside, wasn’t it all over, literally, but the shouting?



[...]



When Texas fell and Granger dispatched his now famous order No. 3, it wasn’t exactly instant magic for most of the Lone Star State’s 250,000 slaves. On plantations, masters had to decide when and how to announce the news — or wait for a government agent to arrive — and it was not uncommon for them to delay until after the harvest. Even in Galveston city, the ex-Confederate mayor flouted the Army by forcing the freed people back to work, as historian Elizabeth Hayes Turner details in her comprehensive essay, “Juneteenth: Emancipation and Memory,” in Lone Star Pasts: Memory and History in Texas.


Those who acted on the news did so at their peril. As quoted in Litwack’s book, former slave Susan Merritt recalled, ” ‘You could see lots of niggers hangin’ to trees in Sabine bottom right after freedom, ’cause they cotch ’em swimmin’ ‘cross Sabine River and shoot ’em.’ ” In one extreme case, according to Hayes Turner, a former slave named Katie Darling continued working for her mistress another six years (She ” ‘whip me after the war jist like she did ‘fore,’ ” Darling said).

Delayed telling them until after harvest.

Can you believe that.

Just to suck more labour out of them.

Nah. That is a disgrace.

I read this deeply.

Juneteenth is clearly a great celebration.
But it didn't come easy.

What a struggle.

And so many murdered utilising their new found freedom.

Terrible.

Diviner21 — You are great too! I enjoyed our conversation and I hope people here will call you too!

I don’t have a smart tv. I think they are surveillance tools. I wonder if people can still purchase regular flat screen TVs? I do have an old TV-radio-VCR combo. The VCR part quit working last month though.

That’s okay.

I have a converter box that can record programs onto an external USB flash drive. I also have a device I use to convert old VHS tapes to digital. It’s time consuming & a headache. I have 2 VCRs I can use to play the tapes & I don’t have to hook them up to the tv to record to digital!

I thank you for asking about Juneteenth. You clearly understand the struggles Africans and their descendants in America faced and are still facing.

Even though we have all these protests we are still getting imprisoned, beaten, and killed.

Morning everyone...

 

Alexandra Grant. More lies? Did she forget she married another person 10 years ago... & is still married... UPDATE...

  I had a dream about Alexandra Grant. (Which in it's self is disturbing)   This is what I saw in the dream.   I SAW...   Alexandra Grant   is married. Not to Keanu Reeves.  T he marriage took place around 9/10 years ago on the  East coast of America.  (Not New York City)   I Saw She was in a  very close relationship with this  "Person" I See she was paid to do this... The person she is married to is of dubious character...   This person has been  "Away"  for quite a while...    (If you know what I mean)   This person is threatening to return..   She will...   To expose the marriage & other criminal behaviors  they both had a part in.    As I write this.   Keanu Reeves & his team.  Do not know of this.    Alexandra,  knows is still legally married. Has her head in the sand. Hoping it will go away...   STAY TUNED...    MORE TO COME...
