@blorenzo 1.) My granny also mentioned that a fellow service member did offer to rent one of his properties to my grandparents.
#VeteransForKaepernick Although my grandfather served two tours in Vietnam, he couldn't even rent a home near his base b/c he was black.

@blorenzo 2.) She even spoke with him on the phone, he asked them both to come over immediately and sign the lease but there was one problem -
@blorenzo 3.) They arrived no less than 20 minutes later, the second he laid eyes on my grandfather he said the property was taken. but why? -
@blorenzo 4.) You See, My grandmother is very fair skinned and can easily pass for a white women. -
@blorenzo 5.) But when the soldier saw her VERY dark-skinned husband, only then did he realise she wasn't white. -

@blorenzo I'm so extremely sorry for the horrific injustices that plague you. Please know most of us do NOT support that! We fight for you! -
@Safari_Street Thanks, I am not looking for an indictment of white America, just the systems that promote this stopped and held accountable. -
@blorenzo My only prejudice views are against my own self entitled people who ignore what's going on in the US. It makes me so angry! -
@Safari_Street I appreciate you! -
@blorenzo I never wanted any 1 to "notice" me, I JUST want to help. But I've been guilt ridden my whole life 4 knowing people like my father -
@Safari_Street In my opinion, your father should be looking up to you rather than you carrying his burdens. Your example is more than enough

@docdebags@SpringerKM I just spoke to a daughter of a WWII Vet on Sunday, to think this madness was going on in my own back yard. -
@blorenzo@docdebags History sometimes feels too close for comfort, I imagine. -
@SpringerKM@docdebags Or maybe some would like to learn their history in "comfort" while allowing others to suffer reality. :/ -
@blorenzo@docdebags You get to pick and choose what you believe, that way. -
@SpringerKM@docdebags Well said madam, Well said...
