    Thank you INFO for this thread pham. This thread give me power when I see this stuff and reminds of what our ancestors went thru to get me to this point in time. This thread reminds NEVER to give up or give in. This thread reminds to KEEP fighting for my right to live. This thread reminds me to KEEP fighting just like my ancestors did.

    No Doubt!

    Exactly what it's intended to do.

    Some photos i have omitted so far because of the cruelty in them hit me deep. I can't look at photos like that of our ancestors and then go outside like everything is everything and i'm sure i'm not the only one like that. So i keep that in mind when choosing which pics to post or not.

    A friend lent me the movie 'uncle's toms cabin' a couple of months ago and i have yet to get past the first 30 minutes. My spirit won't let me do it.

    peace to you

    When I read this thread, just when I thought my world was caving in, I realize my situation is NOTHING compared to what my/our ancestors endured.

    I have to see that uncle's toms cabin. Heard about it never reached out to see it though. Man IMO don't omit nothing, post it. IT HAPPENED. When need to see it. (or send me the link, i'll post it and you put me on ignore so you want see the post lol) If they hit you deep, then post and look away because IMO we NEED to see EVERYTHING. This is the future. I feel you seeing the pictures and going outside and everything is everything I feel you on that trust. I still say the posting of a picture is nothing in comparison to what the person in the picture is feeling. This happened to US. We need to see it. No matter how cruel IMO. We need to know, we must never forget.
    We must gain strength from this. BECAUSE THE PEOPLE IN THESE PICTURES ARE WHY WE STAND TODAY. Their strength is our strength.

    You've done a brilliant job here. Anyone who's legacy evolves a slave ship, they must take pride that only the strong survived. Your thread is a reminder of this. Your strength shows here, the strength and focus to create and manifest this.

    Again this is a brilliant thread. I don't care what nobody says. The stuff we consider problems nowadays is laughable when compared to the day in the life of one of our ancestors.
