Great

Colonization did not create this country. America was always around. But history tells us that it’s meaningless Because the first people were brown. Again, great. Great power, great hate, great greed. How about great peace, great education, and great empathy— Instead of making great statues of the ones who secede. People of color make this country great. Defending it abroad while attacked at home. Black women make this country great. Making movements and changing fate. Indigenous people are this country. They know peace is better than power. Allies of every color too— Know this country is great because it’s ours.
Great
