@adivunsolicited: the fact that America makes slavery and Jim Crow something that happened hundreds of years ago is the reason they want to get rid of CRT and the real history of this country #BlackTikTok #BlackHistory #EduTok #crt
My mom was 17 when segregation ended. I’m only 37!

And they only show black and white pictures so people think the civil rights movement was so long ago.

Women weren’t allowed to have bank accounts and credit cards in their own name until 1974. Which makes me the first person in my family born with all rights.

They don’t understand systemic racism. They don’t even understand that “white privilege” doesn’t mean “money.” But more importantly, they don’t *want* to understand.

My grandmother was born in 1949. I’ll never forget the time she told me that she went to go see sleeping beauty at the colored picture show through the colored door….. She will be 76 this year. It really was not that long ago.

My mother's birthday certificate from Texas indicates she's "colored" and she attended segregated schools. I'm a millennial.

Systematic racism didn’t end when slavery was abolished, they can’t fathom the disadvantage we live with bc they live in privilege.

1. The whole problem is that they don’t want to face the discomfort of hearing about the whole issue and how they play a role on upholding the system, very much like a parent that never apologizes,

People’s perception of time is flawed. For example if you went back in time (now) the amount of years Marty McFly did in Back to the Future, you’d be in 1995. Things are not as far away as they seem
