[quote=Anonymous]OP again According to wikipedia, white beatniks were already appropriating it in 1962. But I believe in looking at the roots of things, and the reality is that there are unbroken threads going back from BLM to the failures of desegregation to segregation itself, to redlining and denying black access to New Deal program, to the south using prisons to perpetuate the slave plantation and the theft of black-owned land, to the failure of the Union in abandoning any commitment to Reconstruction and handing political power right back to the oppressors. William Faulkner was right. The past isn't dead, it's not even past. [/quote]
