Opinion: We Are African Americans, We Are Patriots, and We Refuse To Sit Idly By

July 27, 2019

Subject

Opinion; Racism; Discrimnation

Description

We’ve heard this before. Go back where you came from. Go back to Africa. And now, “send her back.” Black and brown people in America don’t hear these chants in a vacuum; for many of us, we’ve felt their full force being shouted in our faces, whispered behind our backs, scrawled across lockers, or hurled at us online. They are part of a pattern in our country designed to denigrate us and keep us separate and afraid.
