The whole white privilege thing is now a scam, which is why they screech racist, bring up slavery and jim crow and pull down Confederate monuments.
I don’t have any privilege as God does not judge on the color of one’s skin, but I do have all the blessings he promised to those who love him and obey his commandments especially those families that do so over generations.
I don’t understand. If she died in 1948 at 105 years of age, that would mean she was born in 1842, 20 years before the emancipation proclamation. I’m I reading this wrong?
I believe the distinction was “she was the last SURVIVING individual ‘born’ into Slavery”… having been born in 1842 and living until 1948.
I find it a bit odd that the last person to die after being born into slavery was 22 when slavery ended. She was 105 when she died, so every one born into slavery in 1865 died before they made it to around 83 not one made it to 84+ but she made it to 105. Seems odd to me.
Yes, that was my confusion. Except the article said “the last surviving individual born into slavery before the Emancipation Proclamation” which was January 1, 1863 so I guess everyone else born after her only made it to 85 years of age not 83. (if it’s accurate)
As long as we have the likes of Al Sharpton, the slavery issue will never die.
the sting of “racist” has long ago died out for me i simply do not care what i am called. i will defend others though when the label is used on them.
Mara was a wonderful friend and trusted councilor. We will miss her. She was always there to give us guidance during our all too often financial changes. Our prayers to God ask that his Peace touch her family. I’m sure we’ll see her again.
I’m looking at this book you linked to Jim/Hugh called “A Crime So Monstrous: Face-to-Face with Modern-Day Slavery Paperback – March 24, 2009” Would you recommend anything newer? Is the topic still germane to be read 9 years later?
Intimidated and don’t know where to start with radio? This book is the perfect guide to what options you have i.e. GMRS, CB, to ham and basic communication topics.
