I received this message in my inbox the other day. Its message: simple, yet powerful. A message too powerful not to share with others. As Black History Month fades into a memory, it is important not to forget the struggle.
Never forget the price paid for where you stand today.
This was once our resume.
None of us has had to experience the pain of separation or live with the disgrace and humiliation that comes with not being free. When you cast your vote for who will run our country, never forget your history and keep this bill of sale in mind. When we allow ourselves to forget our not so distant past, then we are destined to repeat these actions in our future.
Stand for those who came before us and those who could not stand up for themselves. VOTE!
Acknowledgement: Thank you Chris for sharing this powerful message.
