Go Back to Africa Conversation: Today, June 17th, 2021 One Hundred and fifty six years after the slaves in Texas were given their freedom, Congress passed a bill and President Biden signed into law the bill establishing Juneteenth as a federal holiday. The slaves in this country were actually freed 3 years prior but the news was not shared until a Union Army general arrived in Galveston, Texas and informed the then enslaved African Americans that the war had ended and they were free.

When those that are still living in their pain bodies of racism and suggest we (Black people) go back to Africa- cause they think that is punishment my response is as follows:

We will take what we have earned and invested in with us should we decide to go home to humanity’s Motherland! The world does not begin and end with US. We are now global citizens and the world is our home! Just look at the countries and people who have awaken to the disease of racism that has engulfed this country! It has imploded! It was founded by the rejected and un be-knowing to them because their intentions were for the haves and have nots, the rejected once enslaved people (black, yellow, red and white) will be the cornerstones God used to fulfill His promises of love, justice, peace, equality and compassion. Everyone that was suppose to awaken from their slumber of ignorance, indifference, shackles of being enslaved into darkness, fear, disbelief has been awakened! Transformation that is leading to reconstruction and reconciliation is in play! The train has left the station! The planes have taken flight and the ships are prepared for the total waves because God is at the helm of the divine right order that is erupting in the souls of humanity!

Today I believe America Has embarked in a new direction to resolve the inequity and injustice of racism. The world is watching every step we take to bring resolve and reparations for what has been done to people of color in this country. As African Americans, we have always stepped into the fire to be acknowledged for what injustice has been done to us and against us. When we stand up, speak up and show up to fight the curse of racism, we are standing for all of those that have been marginalized and abused by institutional racism.
