In our history holds bad.
In our history holds sadness.
But we can't eliminate it like it doesn't exist to be known.

Universities removing statue and names of a building.
Which is amusing to many?
Some of the best slave owners are on all the dollars.

Yes, these dead presidents that grace them.
Well, except for Ben were slave owners and most likely Franklin too.
It was accepted.

Many corporations saying this or that presently and have a deep history going back several decades.
Has a past rooted in some form of discrimination?
Are we protesting them?
Are we avoiding them?

Some of the unions were driven in racism too.
Our history is what drives us to go forth to be greater?

Some crying about racism the most fail to realize the secrets within their own.
