I am so proud of the Brazilian journalists who have created their own "1619 Project" to excavate the legacy of slavery in the nation that received more enslaved Africans than anywhere else and was the last country in the Americas to abolish slavery. Bravo and can't wait. — PolitiTweet.org

@Zodliest 3) Sally Hemings was enslaved when she bore his children, as I said. While she briefly had legal freedom as a 16 yo in Paris, Thomas Jefferson NEVER freed her and she was enslaved by him until he died. — PolitiTweet.org

@Zodliest You're obviously not to be taken seriously but for others reading your tweets, let me fact check. 1) I used enslaver on purpose. Google it. 2) If you hold someone in bondage you have enslaved them. If you purchase human beings and own them, you're an enslaver. — PolitiTweet.org
