Open Letter to My Sisters and Brothers on the Aftermath of the Slaughter of Nine Members of the African American National Community in Mother Emanuel Church in Charleston, South Carolina

Yet in his failure and because of the results of his actions nine human beings went f

This executive order process reminds me of the process of how the Emancipation Proclamation was done! There were no negotiations between the enlavers and the enslaved!! The result then was that we were so-called freed, dead broke without brick, bread or thread, and with no choice but to stay "unfree" notwithstanding the 13th Amendment!!
