Halito! Peace and Grand Rising! 🌞 Just sharing some thoughts on Dr. King's B'earthday! Every year, many reflect on Dr. King's "I Have a Dream" speech, where he emphasized not being judged by the color of our skin. Interestingly, this speech seems particularly popular among those who don't resemble him. Personally, I prefer the statement he made a few years later when he realized that HIS American dream wasn't necessarily shared by those in control.
Dr. King came to understand that promises were just that... promises! Today, we witness what our Great-Great Grandparents did: the plan to displace the Original landowners, open borders for others to assume our identity AGAIN, and eventually claim our land. Our Ancestors saw the Government handing out money and land incentives to immigrants, land that was swindled from them.
Genealogy research, not DNA testing nonsense, reveals the truth. 🏹 Dr. King stated, "100 years later, the Negro is still languished in the corners of American society and finds himself in exile in his own land." So, how am I celebrating Dr. King's remembrance? Well, I'm not attending any parades, protests, church services or memorials. I am not lighting a candle, nor am I saying a prayer. I am spending the day researching my family tree, because I am tired of being lied to, and still feeling like what Dr. King said, "exiled in my own land!" 🪶🪶🪶👆👆👆
