Who Are The Real Looters

The people of America who currently have the means and the wherewithal to boycott the businesses – the unjust system – lack the conviction.

Our criticism of the riots and the rebellion we see in the streets of modern America, lacks empathy for the cause.

It is a self serving attitude that speaks louder than all the other hashtags combined; MY – COMFORT- MATTERS!

History shows Douglass returned to America and became a leader in the abolition of slavery.

The horizontal white flight to re-segregate America is short-term.
