TweetHER GREAT GREAT GRANDMOTHER WAS TRACED BACK TO SLAVERY IN THE SOUTH AND SOLD TO A WHITE SLAVE OWNER THAT GAVE HER, HER FIRST CHILD. THEN MOVED TO BIRMINGHAM ALABAMA, THEN EVENTUALLY TO CHICAGO.

HER ANCESTRY WAS TRACED BACK ON THE TODAY SHOW THIS MORNING AND SAID SHES COME FROM SLAVERY TO THE WHITE HOUSE.

THE NEWS CAME OUT YESTERDAY AND BEING DOWN SOUTH, THERE ARE LOTS OF COLORED FOLKS HERE IN MY TOWN. WHY SHOULD THIS NEWS MAKE THEM HAVE AN EVEN BIGGER CHIP ON THEIR SHOULDER?

WHY WOULDNT THIS JUST MAKE THEM SEE GOOD THINGS ARE POSSIBLE FOR ANYONE? EVEN THEM?

WHY STILL HAVE ALL THE HATRED BETWEEN FOLKS?

CANT FOLKS EVER JUST GET ALONG?
