@sallyriding1234 @NikkiHaley Acting as if she doesn't know why HBCUs exist in the first place. — PolitiTweet.org

@weighted_pullup Yes, she's definitely campaigning on race. Also: dispute factually one thing I tweeted. — PolitiTweet.org

Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones

So to deploy the 1619 Project and Black protest movements as progenitors of anti-American hatred when in fact what they both show is NO GROUP has fought for the ideals of equality and freedom more than Black Americans is just highly offensive. — PolitiTweet.org

And they immigrated to an America in 1969 where legal discrimination based on race, ethnicity and national origin had been banished by the martyrs of a decades-long, blood and violent Black resistance struggle. — PolitiTweet.org

Nikki Haley's family was able to immigrate to the US because the 1965 Immigration and Nationality Act finally ended the racist immigration quota system designed to keep out most non-white immigrants. https://t.co/3j291zy9r5 — PolitiTweet.org

Talking about how governments in China and Iran kill their own citizens while from a state where in 1968, four years before she was born, highway patrolman -- govt agents -- opened fire on 200 unarmed Black citizens protesting apartheid in South Carolina. https://t.co/1Ft1FBzzjc — PolitiTweet.org

Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones

Uses #1619Project as political prop in a video that opens with growing up where railroad tracks (not white people) divided the town by race. Talking about being the child of immigrants without acknowledging that the rights she had in SC were won by Black resistance. Just peak. — PolitiTweet.org

@PauI_Heckman @NeverNotBlack @IAMJADEJACKSON That you want us to let go of our tradition because it is divisive while you have no problem with a national anthem written by a man who enslaved our ancestors and who talked about harming Black people sums up the hypocrisy and the problem. Have a good night. — PolitiTweet.org

Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones

@PauI_Heckman @NeverNotBlack @IAMJADEJACKSON Black Americans adopted the Negro National Anthem at a time of strict racial segregation when Black Americans were denied nearly all citizenship rights. It is a century-long tradition that celebrates the resilience of Black Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

@PauI_Heckman @NeverNotBlack @IAMJADEJACKSON Why does that have to do with the Black National Anthem? — PolitiTweet.org

Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones

@PauI_Heckman @IAMJADEJACKSON One, the Negro National Anthem has nothing to do with skin color. Two, the traditional national anthem has racist lyrics. Should we stop singing that based on your premise, just for consistencies sake? https://t.co/VzYU33VO9S — PolitiTweet.org

@S_C_McD @DavidAn1611 @RainyDreamDays @UndrCvrCounsel @coldxman All 13 colonies practiced slavery at the Revolution, with New York having one of the largest enslaved populations. — PolitiTweet.org

@DavidAn1611 @S_C_McD @RainyDreamDays @UndrCvrCounsel @coldxman When trying to confederate, slavery was a MAJOR issue. You need to question why you are so confidently wrong. https://t.co/ybhv0JsNze https://t.co/WsgJXokXLx — PolitiTweet.org

@DavidAn1611 @S_C_McD @RainyDreamDays @UndrCvrCounsel @coldxman But even the one that we all know discusses slavery when it rails against the king for stoking their insurrection. — PolitiTweet.org

@DavidAn1611 @S_C_McD @RainyDreamDays @UndrCvrCounsel @coldxman Thomas Jefferson wrote an entire passage about slavery in his original draft of the Declaration. It was struck because the Southern colonies would not sign on if it remained. — PolitiTweet.org

Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones

@DavidAn1611 @S_C_McD @RainyDreamDays @UndrCvrCounsel @coldxman You believe slavery was not/is not in the Declaration? You're so confident about things you clearly haven't studied. — PolitiTweet.org
