Fuck this. Fuck this post so much.

Do not tell me your best friend would not sit at your lunch table for three fucking days just staring blankly at your old seat wishing you were there to fill the space with laughter.

Do not tell me your siblings won’t break down in the middle of class because they were talking about your favorite type of subject at school.

Do not tell me your mother would not stare at the mirror with trembling lips wishing she could be bringing you home from the hospital rather than having to escort you away in a casket to the nearest graveyard.

Do not tell me your father would not begin working night shifts to distract himself of the silence at home because you’re not up until the ungodly hours of the night talking to what’s-his/her-face on the phone because you guys are so in love.

Do not tell me your boyfriend/girlfriend would not go into your room and put on the last hoodie you wore trying to desperately imprint your sent onto their skin so they never forget your smell.

Do not tell me your friends would not stare blankly at the gymnasium wall after the principal has announced your death to the entire school, making no sound. Trying to convince themselves this is just another one of your impractical jokes.

Do NOT fucking tell me this bullshit line of how the stars would still appear, the sun would still come out, the earth will still rotate, and the seasons will still change. Because without YOU, you beautiful piece of human being, none of these people will want ANY of that to happen.

There are people still benefiting off of the money made in slave trade as well

There are people alive TODAY, who’s grandparents were slaves.

My goodness. No matter how many ways I see and read this information I’m startled. People swear slavery was light years ago like we’re living in the year 4015 instead of 2015.

Also people don’t understand just how horrible segregation and Jim Crow was. It was a step up from slavery in the same way 10pm is a step up from 9pm.

Man.

My teacher grandparents were slaves
