THE RECLAMATION OF 🇺🇸
The 14th amendment was the ONLY recompense MY ancestors received after 246 years of CHATTEL SLAVERY! The Democrats and republicans have stripped Black Americans, the descendants of slaves, of our special benefits and privileges we received after toiling on this LAND with our blood, sweat and tears and given it to every foreigner on EARTH FOR FREE!!!

AFRICAN & BLACK HISTORY
AFRICAN & BLACK HISTORY@AfricanArchives·
Dangerfield Newby is the actual man on which the movie D’Jango Unchained is loosely based. He was a member of the John Brown raiders. He joined the gang to save his wife, Harriet and children from slavery. —Dangerfield Newby (1815 – October 17, 1859) was the oldest of John Brown's raiders, one of five black raiders, and the first of his men to die at Harpers Ferry, Virginia. Born into slavery in Fauquier County, Virginia, Newby married a woman also enslaved. Newby's father was Henry Newby, a landowner in Fauquier County. His mother was Elsey Newby, who was a slave, owned not by Henry, but by a neighbor, John Fox. Elsey and Henry lived together for many years and had several children, although interracial marriage was illegal in Virginia. Dangerfield was their first child. Dangerfield Newby, his mother and his siblings were later freed by his father when he moved them across the Ohio River into Bridgeport, Ohio. John Fox, who died in 1859, apparently did not attempt to retrieve Elsey, Dangerfield, or any of his siblings. Dangerfield's wife and their seven children remained in bondage. A letter found on his body revealed some of his motivation for joining John Brown and the raid on Harpers Ferry. Dangerfield Newby's wife, Harriet Newby, was the slave of Jesse Jennings, of Arlington or Warrenton, Virginia. Newby had been unable to purchase the freedom of his wife and seven children. Their master raised the price after Newby had saved the $1,500 that had previously been agreed on. Because all of Newby's other efforts had failed he hoped to free them by force. Harriet's poignant letters, found on his body, proved instrumental in advancing the abolitionist cause. Newby was six foot two. On October 17, 1859, the citizens of Harpers Ferry set to put down the raid. Harpers Ferry manufactured guns but the citizens had little ammunition, so during the assault on the raiders they fired anything they could fit into a gun barrel. One man was shooting six inch spikes from his rifle, one of which struck Newby in the throat, killing him instantly. After the raid, the people of Harpers Ferry took his body, stabbed it repeatedly, and amputated his limbs. His body was left in an alley to be eaten by hogs. In 1899 the remains of Newby-plus remains of nine other raiders-were reburied in a common grave near the body of John Brown in North Elba, New York. Dangerfield Newby's wife, Harriet and her children were sold to a Louisiana slave owner after the raid.

Did you know that Smokey The Bear-particularly the hat Smokey wore- was patterned after the Buffalo Soldiers. These were the Foundational Black American men who became the first National Park Rangers in the U.S.. From the late 1800s into the early 1900s, Buffalo Soldiers were stationed in and around early national parks and: Built roads and trails that allowed access to remote park areas Mapped terrain and established usable routes Protected land from illegal logging, grazing, and mining Stopped poaching and enforced conservation rules Removed squatters and unregulated settlers from protected land Maintained infrastructure (cabins, bridges, patrol routes) In other words, they quite literally cleared the way—physically and administratively—for what later became America’s national park system. #BlackHistoryMonth

🚂 WHO built America? Oh, look. Another inconvenient fact. "Southern railroad companies began buying slaves as early as the 1840s and used enslaved labor ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY to construction their lines" Immigrants came to a nation that was ALREADY BUILT. railroads.unl.edu/views/item/sla…

@tariqnasheed Whites will become a minority and you’ll still be saying the same thing. You’re all obsessed with victimhood. You’re horny for it. “White supremacy” is doing nothing to you but you obsess over it. If it were your life would be nothing like what it is right now
