The Artdog Quotes of the Week
One of the recurring themes in white supremacist rhetoric (of which we've heard far too much since the start of the Trump Administration) is that white people are somehow "superior" to other races.
Presumably, that would extend to the depth of their thoughts. I wondered if it might be interesting to compare observations written by leaders of the Confederate States of America with the thoughts of people who had experience on the "receiving end" of slavery.
I'll leave it to you, to determine whose thoughts resonate with the greater depth.
IMAGES: The "In their own words" graphic is my own design. I found the quote in a Huffington Post article, "The Civil War was about Slavery." Many thanks to AZ Quotes for the quote-image featuring the words of Jean-Jacques Dessalines.
