Learning our real history doesn’t divide us; it informs us. The divide occurs when some people understand the past and try to reckon with it, while others are blissfully unaware and continue to perpetuate its sins.

the same could be said for our present circumstances. we are living in the most segregated society in recent memory and not a word from you about it. why retweet a picture of blatant segregation from 1906 and say absolutely nothing about blatant segregation in 2022?

You’re really claiming that only those ignorant of the past could perpetuate its sins? Some people revel in them.

The right is clearly afraid of materialization of actual equality. That's why they dislike talking about how brutally unequal the past was.

The aboriginals of the Americas and all other lands were copper skinned "Ethiopians" as the early colonizers would describe.

Spot on. True education is a "drawing forth" of our passion and truth. We must continue to educate to heal the divisions.
