I hope someone puts this on a static website with their names so future employers can find it easily

Don't be Oklahoma, don't be Okla....awww shoot.

I hope they all get the punishment they deserve for not only posting that, but thinking it was an ok thing to do in the first place.

That said, I have zero weight in the discussion, but I'd like to see such racially charged words, lose all their power. I understand why people from certain races have issues with such words, though I kind of see it as giving the racists some measure of control over you and your emotional state. IMO, that gives them power that they do not deserve to have and they can, will, and do, use it against the people who take issue with it.

Like I said, I have no weight in the discussion at all, and even if the power of such words is stripped from them, I still don't think it's okay to return such words to people's common vernacular. These words should be all but stricken from record and forgotten. The only record that should exist is in history books saying that it existed and that it should never be used, and why.

It's not a good chapter in anyone's books that humans were owned by other humans, regardless of race, but race seems to be permanently tied to owning people. Non-African slaves existed, and still exist, but it's not what people think of when someone says "slavery". Regardless, it shouldn't happen, but it did.

Fact is, reparations are long overdue.

The reality that people like the kids in the picture are basically being groomed to be the next generation of asshole racist motherfuckers we're fighting so hard to keep away from any position of power, is sickening. Fuck everyone involved in the production of this photo.

I'm not a POC, and bluntly, I don't see why anyone treats anyone any differently because they have more, or less melanin. What a stupid thing to judge someone on.
