    Tonight, @Oprah Winfrey reports on a new monument going up in Montgomery, Ala. that documents the lynchings of African-American men, women and children during a 70-year period following the Civil War. #60Minutes http://cbsn.ws/2qf60ZQ pic.twitter.com/w59Edvamlo

        I guess the mass slaughter of indigenous Americans by both white and black skinned death squads not so important to history...or too jarring to look straight in the eye.

        Lol..You mistake me for a righty..I just dont support the current BLM movement in absence of others that suffered as great or greater with no recognition. But good stab in the dark though!

        Such a well presented story. At the end my husband turned to me and said “ there are still legalized lynchings, now it happens to be police with a gun shooting unarmed black men”.

        Why take down one to install others if the overall hopes for effect is to create unity and to move on.

        Cause we build monuments to victims who suffered and died not deeply disturbed people who owned slaves. Holocaust victims yes... Nazis no. Get it? If you don’t like it work hard to pioneer space, cause on this planet good is not nice, it’s good.

        Cool then it was an honest question I answered. We have glossed over a lot for the facade of “unity” Which is why we never get there.Confederate monuments vs commemorating those who were murdered for being black is false equivilancy.

        As I stated to another why not a monument of a platoon which is mixed ethics a reminder that all Americans have shed blood. I get what you are saying, I just don't see healing power in the one just memories of horrid times

        This is about genocide & terrorism like the Holocaust museum is. One group of people having power over and destroying the lives of people they consider “other”. We need reminders so we don’t go there again.

        Good, this will show the ugly and dark side of America, we should also do the same for the American Indians. History can't continue to be pushed under the rug.

        This is why no one should say the N word. In my opinion even black people Because sadly, more than likely that was the last word those being being lynched heard.

        Does it mention that majority of slave owners & those doing the lynching were Democrats? If not, it’s another liberal propaganda tool, nothing more.

        Not returning, but still in the midst of Jim Crow. The mass incarceration and constant MURDER of Black ppl at the hands of kkkops is no accident, it is deliberate by design. The shape shifters merely changed forms in order to deceive us and appear human. Stay woke! #60Minutes
