A MUST READ from @antjuansea !!! theroot.com/what-did-our-v…
We must remember the forgotten history of Memorial Day and honor the contributions of all who fought for freedom, equality, and peace. Let us reflect on the past and work towards a more inclusive future. 🕊️🌍
However, more needs to be done to ensure that their story is properly included in the city's history. ->
It is essential to recognize the deeper issues surrounding the holiday, including the systemic erasure of African-American contributions and the need to prioritize peace. Charleston officials have taken small steps towards acknowledging the African-American roots of Memorial Day.
While Memorial Day has become a day to honor fallen soldiers, it has also become a celebration of war without critical reflection. ->
Sadly, this significant event has been overlooked in the official narrative of Memorial Day. The efforts of African-Americans in Charleston have been marginalized and forgotten. The suppression of their story reflects a broader pattern of erasing African-American history. ->
They reburied the fallen soldiers and created a cemetery, known as the Washington Race Course. A procession of 10,000 people, including black schoolchildren and Union infantry, marched in tribute. ->
