Twitter- timeline talk.


I really believe that history has repeated itself. People always talk about slavery back then and how things were with African American, yet many fail to see that the same racism is going on now. On twitter Nico mentioned that the same way African Americans were the backbone of America back then, same goes for minorities and immigrants in our time. It’s sad to see that our society’s way of thinking has been blocked. Many fail to see the similarities that still take place. Another thing that has been on my mind is that Yan Peng mentioned when she learned about African Americans in china, but she didn’t learn about African American history the way it’s been taught to her here. In china they didn’t focus much on how African Americans were brutally mistreated and haggled about like cattle. So I ask myself, what other piece of information are we possibly being misinformed about?
