It's days change color and weather
No other month can say quite the same…’- Jessica Millsaps

'The original March on Washington took place on 28 August 1963, a hundred years after Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation, which proclaimed the freedom of enslaved people in southern states. It was the biggest demonstration that Washington had ever seen.'

Lest We Forget
‘We are a product of our history—even the history we don’t like to think about.’
Veritas vos liberabit (The truth will set you free)
One of the most effective ways to respond to the inhumanity and injustices of the past is to ensure that the current and future generations do not forget what happened, that we address the harrowing loss of liberty and life, cruelty, the stollen opportunities, as well as the loss of potential forgone earnings and income, racism, xenophobia, inequality, poverty, unfair and abusive trade practices which are totally formulated in the interest of the former colonisers and slave-traders/holders..., and the deprivation that reverberates across centuries to present time. Carpe diem!
