Get over it

Why are most, not all white people dreading the fact that some confederate statues are being taken down ? Normally, their answer is “Stop trying to erase history”
Alright .

Why are black people told to “get over” slavery ? Isn’t that apart of history too ? Or are we supposed to get over the fact that because of black people did indeed suffer ?

We also are told “never forget 9/11” why ? We aren’t supposed to remember years and years of slavery , but we are supposed to remember the day when the AMERICAN GOVERNMENT KILLED THOUSANDS of innocent people on our own soil? 

Anytime a non-Trump supporter has something to say about Trump, his supporters usually retaliate with “Hillary lost, get over it snowflake”. They’re just automatically assuming whoever didn’t vote for Trump voted for Hillary. 

The confederate statues represent the south. Didn’t the south lose? Why have statues of traitors and losers throughout our country? The south lost, get over it.

I Thought All Lives Mattered?

Unless you’re:

• an immigrant
• disabled
• a minority
• any religion besides Christian

 

America doesn’t care if you’re an undocumented immigrant just trying to provide a better life for your family. Little do they know how long and how expensive it is to become a legal citizen.

America doesn’t care that you’re fleeing your war stricken country to come to America so your family isn’t awaken by the sound of bombs in the middle of the night. According to America, you’re a terrorist, your wife is oppressed, and you are raising your children to be future terrorists.

America doesn’t care that you’re a straight A honor roll African American student going to a state university on a full (non athletic) scholarship. Even when you graduate, no matter what, you will get turned down a job offer because your name is DeMarcus or Shaniqua .

Notice how whenever someone says “Black Lives Matter” “Brown Lives Matter” “Minority Lives Matter” the most common response is “ALL LIVES MATTER”. “All lives matter” is just a response which basically translates to “Shut your black asses up.” Yes, all lives matter. It’s not “Black lives matter more than any other lives”, it’s “Black lives matter, too”. Just the fact that we even have to remind people that a certain group matters says a lot about society as a whole.

Black Lives Matter was created to protest the unjustly murders of blacks by white police officers. The most common question is “Why doesn’t BLM protest black on black killings?”

Just like the white police officers, some blacks don’t value the life of other blacks.
