everyone (especially blacks) should read this masterpiece by FREDRICK DOUGLASS. it shows how far america has move since 1852.
WHAT TO THE AMERICAN SLAVE IS YOUR FOURTH OF JULY?
.............. what to the American slave is your Fourth of July? I answer, a day that reveals to him more than all other days of the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the consant victim. To him your celebrations is a SHAM; your basted liberty an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling VANITY; your sounds of rejoicing are empty and HEARTLESS; your denunciation of tyrants(saddam), BRASH-FRONTED IMPUDENCE(bush); your shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mockery; your prayer and hymns (bush), your sermons and thanksgivings, with all your religious parade and solemnity; are to him mere bombast, FRAUD, DECEPTION, impiety, and HYPOCRISY (cheney)_ a thin veil to cover up crimes which would disgrace a nation of savages. There is not a nation of the earth guilty of practices more shocking and bloody than are the "goverment" of these united states at this very hour........
