Imagine being an African in the south
in the 1800’s.
Imagine being brought to shores of this country, stolen from everything
and everyone you knew, to be forced to a place where there’s
nothing you know.
Imagine being put in a belly of a ship, chained from head to toe
with thousands of your people next to you.
Imagine seeing the youngest to the oldest sick and dying from diseases
and hunger.
Imagine being brought to the shores of “AMERICA The Land
of the Free and The Brave.”
Imagine not being free and you are too afraid to be brave, this
is the life of a slave here on the shores of America in the 1800’s.
Imagine putting a price on a person because he or she is black
or because they don’t speak your tongue or because they look
different from you.
Now imagine this happening now here in the 1800’s. “We
are people of a nation”. For all people we want Freedom,
Justice, and Equality. We the people are for the people, of all
colors, races,
and ways of life.
IMAGINE…
