The governor of Arizona has ordered Black History to be removed from Arizona textbooks. Section 4 of The Voter's Rights Act of 1865 has been gutted and stricken from the Constitution. Obamacare was so strongly opposed because poor people and African-Americans would be covered that the government was shut down in protest. These are just a few of the things that the outsiders did to African Americans.

Degrading of women for hair color and weaves in comments both in local neighborhoods and on Social media. Refusal to support Black-oriented projects or black-owned businesses. Refusal to fight politiciains on their accountability to their voters, refusal to fight back when our neighborhoods are denied funding and real estate to build. Posing on reality shows to emulate the worst image of us on white media....These are some of the things that African-Americans have done to African-Americans. Is internal hatred and discord allowing outsiders to divide and conquer us? Is our tunnel-vision focus on internal trivialities turning a blind eye to the oncoming attack on our rights to exist as a people? Or worse, are we allowing ourselves to be victoms of a new modrn-day slavery?
