blackfemalescientist:shmurdapunk:justice4mikebrown:Mike Brown was murdered 64 days agoThis is something school lessons really downplay.I legit thought it only lasted a week or two and was shocked when I learned otherwise.Because to acknowledge the length of the protests/boycotts is to suggest that the United Stated resisted the right thing. They like to pretend like the country just didnt know what it was doing and only had to be tapped gently on the shoulder before it changed everything. They don’t want people to know that the country clung to its racism for almost a decade after the movement really started. Hell, they act like rosa parks, the million man march and the civil rights act all happened in one year or less. It didnt. -- source link
