History is told from the perspective of the winner.  We're losing.  Have you noticed that school aged black history lessons all start at slavery?Even then, they don't talk a lot about the revolutionaries, like Nat Turner, Marcus Garvey, and Malcolm X.  They've cherry picked, twisted, and just flat out lied about our history and given it to us.  WE need to tell OUR history.  WE need to write OUR future.  Let me know us what you think.
