19.6.23


Children, children, CLASS.   Thank you. 
                                            Let’s everyone take their place, be seated, so we can continue with our lesson for the day. I hope you enjoyed recess, that you’re now refreshed, your minds renewed, and are curious. Today, as I described earlier, is Juneteenth. It is our Nation’s second independence day. It is a day to be remembered, and remembered, unfortunately, among so many days, years, eras of shame, for they are our history. If they are not learned, we are destined to repeat our errors, which have been terribly grievous. 


Frederick Douglass
                      . . . where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob, and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe.
