Respect Rachel Dolezal!
We invite Rachel to help with our Reggae projects and feel bad for the treatment she has received. Thank you for all of your good work, and if you ever wish come and help us out in New York State. We are sorry the world is so narrow minded. The establishment can make a profit respecting all genders but they see no profit in being black, hence she is chewed up by the media.
Both Black and White cultures are beautiful!

Obama on Space Exploration
So let me start by being extremely clear: I am 100 percent committed to
the mission of NASA and its future. (Applause.) Because broadening
our capabilities in space will continue to serve our society in ways
that we can scarcely imagine. Because exploration will once more
inspire wonder in a new generation -- sparking passions and launching
careers. And because, ultimately, if we fail to press forward in the
pursuit of discovery, we are ceding our future and we are ceding that
essential element of the American character.

New Jim Crow (Informed Consent)
...In many states parolees and ex-felons cannot vote.
KQED notes, some 6 million ex-felons are disenfranchised in the US.
Since African-Americans are sentenced at startlingly higher rates than
European-Americans, the burden of loss of voting rights falls especially
heavily on them.

“Disenfranchisement laws disproportionately affect African Americans: in 2010, 1 of every 13 African Americans of voting age — about 7.7 percent nationally — was disenfranchised, a rate more than four times greater than with non-African Americans. In some of the strictest states — including Florida, Kentucky and Virginia — more than 20 percent of the African American population was disenfranchised, the report found.

For the Love of Skin, and Within
Loving v. Virginia, 388 U.S. 1 (1967),[1] was a landmark civil rights decision of the United States Supreme Court which invalidated laws prohibiting interracial marriage.
The case was brought by Mildred Loving, a black woman, and Richard Loving, a white man, who had been sentenced to a year in prison in Virginia for marrying each other. Their marriage violated the state's anti-miscegenation statute, the Racial Integrity Act of 1924, which prohibited marriage between people classified as "white" and people classified as "colored". The Supreme Court's unanimous decision held this prohibition was unconstitutional, reversing Pace v. Alabama (1883) and ending all race-based legal restrictions on marriage in the United States.
The decision was followed by an increase in interracial marriages in the U.S., and is remembered annually on Loving Day, June 12. It has been the subject of two movies as well as songs. Beginning in 2013, it was cited as precedent in U.S. federal court decisions holding restrictions on same-sex marriage in the United States unconstitutional...wiki
