Today is the day that slavery was legally abolished in the USA.
Right after a war that decided that it would be THE USA.
Since the oldest person ever verified was "just" 116 years old and the oldest person claimed was 122...
I think we're on pretty firm footing that any former slave in the United States is no longer with us.
Probably even outside their grandchildren's lives.
I'm not saying that racism and bigotry did not happen after the 13th Amendment was ratified.
I am saying to stop citing slavery when speaking of the injustices you wish to address.
Also, limit yourself to injustice that happened to YOU. Not your brother's nephew's cousin's roommate.
