Rich US colonists wanted to keep more money in their pockets & rule without interference from England.
Most of them wanted to maintain a slave society.
AND settlers wanted to cross the Royal Proclamation Line to seize more Native Lands.
That's why they rebelled.

As long as human rights are treated as optional, the promise of freedom remains unfinished.

#Untilwereallfree, no one is.

Illustration by Soni López-Chávez showing three people standing behind the red and white stripes of a U.S. flag, making the stripes resemble prison bars. A blue field with white stars occupies the upper right corner of the image. One adult holds a child, another person wears a red bandana covering their face, and a third stands with eyes closed. A cardboard sign reads, “UNTIL WE'RE ALL FREE, NO ONE IS.” The composition uses the American flag as a symbol of confinement, contrasting patriotic imagery with themes of immigration, incarceration, and unequal freedom.

THIS is but one of a million reasons why today is #4thOfYouLie:

“Sons of the Confederate Veterans..have defended the carvings as honoring Confederate soldiers..The new exhibit would ‘..utterly ignore the purpose..in creating & maintaining’ the park..” as a monument to the confederacy.😶

250 yrs ago, Thomas Jefferson declared my family "Merciless Indian Savages" conspiring with the British. My tribe and many others were actually allied w/ the French, who were allies of the American Revolutionaries. Racist TJ wasn't too keen on details.

A grift is a scam, a con. America has sold the idea of freedom while building systems that make too many people pay dearly just to survive. Freedom feels fraudulent when basic human rights all come with a hefty price tag. Freedom ain’t free. Neither are we. #PyramidScheme #FauxFreedom #4thOfYouLIE

On this #4thOfYouLie, America:

“Merit” hs always = “white”

“Rich” ws also a plus, but not required to benefit frm whiteness in SOME measure

“Merit” for Black ppl hs always = OVER-qualified AND STILL having your qualifications questioned by mediocre white ppl who could NEVA😶
