As I was getting fed up with bimbos getting all the attention, I had an idea.
Why not fill the space with great women, instead of the ones that hurt our brains?
Let us focus on the good!
Mamie Till-Bradley - an everyday black woman who ignited the civil rights movement.
๐Ÿงต
Mamie Till-Bradley was an ordinary black woman who faced a terrible tragedy and made a crucial decision that helped start the civil rights movement.
Her 14-year-old son, Emmett Till, was brutally murdered in 1955 while visiting an uncle in Mississippi.
To reclaim the body of her son back to Chicago, she had to call on Chicago Congressman to help her.
They wanted to quickly bury her son to cover the whole thing up, but her tenacity was unstoppable.
At the funeral, she insisted on the open casket.
The funeral director hesitated.
The Mississippi authorities had agreed to send the body only if the casket stayed sealed.
Mamie didn't care. The only thing she wanted to do was:
"Let the people see what they did to my boy."
Emmett's disfigured body shook the world.
Nearly 100,000 people saw Emmett's body and many more through the pictures.
It was these images that finally ignited the civil rights movement.
"When people saw what happened to my son, men stood up who had never stood up before."
Imagine that your son, the thing you live for, is disfigured beyond recognition.
And then have the courage to show it to the world.
To have the strength not only to stand on your feet but to carry the civil rights movement forward.
Now that is powerful!
"What happens to any of us, anywhere in the world, had better be the business of us all."
This is not about black or white, female or male, left or right.
It is about humans sticking together.
The "Matrix", the evil will continue to rule until we stop dividing ourselves.
