I did not know that African Americans got together, had a vote, and decided that they’re happy to live in the US!

- tomrod 4y agoOr that they voted that living in the South is tragic! In fact, let's take a step back instead of escalating the point. OP used a weird term for the context without qualifying the tragedy. Yes, slavery and other systemic abuses existed and we see echoes and displays of it today. That is tragic. But the simple fact where people live isn't tragic. It's the why they live where they live, to a degree.
- fsckboy 4y agono vote necessary, Americans overwhelmingly are glad to live in America, and African Americans are not different.
- david422 4y agoI wonder if we'll ever get to the point where we can just refer to people as Americans, instead of just some <subset>.
