(HuffingtonPost) — African-Americans have always been both the pulse and the conscience of the United States of America. We have cried out loudly when the boots of stinging racism have stifled our living and culture. Blacks have over and again brought this nation’s attention to the residuals of racism that have prevented our participation in the American Dream. Black Americans have helped to re-focus that “dream” state to its nightmarish reality for a whole culture of people. Our Black mothers have often been instrumental in raising White sons in antebellum and the post antebellum captivity that is the unemployment of Blacks in modern America. Through the Vietnam conflict, the first person to have died in every major American conflict had been a Black American.
