But hey @kanyewest slavery is a choice right? 🙄😑
Speaking pure truth to Kanye’s dangerous fantasy.
South Carolina Governor, General, and white supremacist terrorist James H Hammond owned 300 slaves.
This is what he wrote about slavery in 1845.
Only an utter fool thinks slavery was a choice.

So, let me do a bit of story time on @KanyeWest, since he thinks he's out of The Sunken Place. And I can't thank @JordanPeele enough for his metaphor.

I have a confession. The only reason why I am not mad at @KanyeWest right now is because I have held a petty grudge against him for many years because he had a mother with a Ph.D. who taught Literature at Chicago State University, yet he named his first album, "College Dropout."
I did not mean to hold the grudge that long; but it just continued because of everything I would feel every single time I saw that album and thought about not only his Mother but everything at Chicago State University, home of the Gwendolyn Brooks Black Writer's Conference.
