For over 400 years, Black people have been treated as subhuman. We were introduced to the United States as property; after being captured, enslaved, and sold like animals or products in high demand. Hundreds of years later, we were “liberated”. However, the hopes of equality and freedom that accompanied liberation were only ideas. The quest for true freedom has been a constant fight. For generations we’ve fought for our most basic rights. Still, we find ourselves shoved into the margins of American society. We are still viewed as inferior.
