Immigrants.
Newcomers.
Naturalized Citizens.
Non-Black People of Color at large.
All of the freedoms we enjoy are due to African Americans, and the sacrifices they made and the civil rights struggles they led. Yesterday, and today.
We thank you this #BlackHistoryMonth

Hard-working immigrant grandmas, like mine, made it possible for the rest of the family to make their contributions in the labor force, though they were never paid a dime. They loved & tended us kids & the home. They're as much a part of the American story, not #ChainMigration.
