Search and seek the truth.
Some love to control the narrative of the story.
Thanksgiving, we keep hearing the fairytale.

The Pilgrims arrived and the Indians just welcome them?
This call controlling the narrative.

Or the whitewashing of the truth.
And it deals with advising the logic we seek is called truth.

Rosa Parks, we hear constantly she refused to give up her seat.
But the truth lies within, she was seated in the section they dictated blacks had to be seated.

In other words, the white section had nothing left.

All minority races can tell you they created their community.
Italians, Cubans, and Native Americans and African Americans because of the white racist structures.

This narrative, we lose focus upon.

Growth destroyed some of these communities.
Interstate structures that cut through their neighborhoods.
And this isn't controlling the narrative.

And many can say, is once upon a time.
