I'm Irish, born, raised & educated in Ireland and things like the 40 acres & a mule & the subsequent theft of both.
Tulsa, red lining & so many more injustices are well known here.
The US's effort to supress it's #history is an effort to avoid responsibility!

Much of US education/curricula are still only a step removed from Jim Crow.
It's up to people to learn the truth of their history Vs accepting the sanitised version presented by those in control.
History in everyone's hand!
Are a skill that seems to have been abandoned by far too many.
