When I heard Donald Trump refuse to denounce the KKK and say he didn’t know much about the KKK my stomach turned. The KKK has killed thousands of Black people in America from the end of slavery even to this present age. Thousands of Black men have been lynched, thousands of Black women raped, and we could NOT go to the police because many of them were in the KKK. The KKK burned WHOLE black communities and towns burned Black churches (BTW 8 Black churches were burned in 2015). We talk about Islam and Isis but the KKK has killed more Americans (Black Live I guess don’t matter) than Isis has.
My Uncles fought in WWII and when they cam home from France after the war they had to ride on the back of trains and buses even though they were wearing their Army uniforms, I hear Trump say “Let’s make America Great Again”….in my mind he wants to take us back to a day and time that were NOT GREAT for Black people.
