In reply to Jackson 5 Nostrils (Tyler).

I never said it was "who we are." However, it has helped mold us into the strong people that we are today. This is something that we went through for over 300 years. The Black Codes, Jim crow, police brutality, and etc all stem form slavery. This all recent history. Black people werer placed in a hole that we've managed to crawl out of with help from noone. That's something to be proud of. I never want our generation to forget it.
