On this day Mar. 6 1857 Judge Roger B. Taney handed down the Dred Scott Decision which basically said that “...black men, whether free or enslaved had no rights that a white man was bound to respect." Moreover, the court ruled that a southern slave holder could take their property anywhere in the United States they liked.
Racism is a monster. Who started the race in the first place?
Imagine a world where
Content was king
And RACE was only a verb
Those now renowned
Who made RACE a noun
Would be counted among the absurd
This has been a Breath of My Ancestors Minute w/Ty Gray-EL…We Must Never Forget
