The White Lion was an English slave ship

A post on my ancestors.

The White Lion was a privateer ship of English manufacture that brought the first Africans to Virginia in late August 1619, a year before the Mayflower. Though the Africans were initially sold as indentured servants, it is regarded as the origin of enslaved Africans in English colonies in mainland North America.

America's History of Slavery Began Long Before Jamestown - HISTORY

The Pilgrims’ Landed On Plymouth Rock four (4), years later!

That was a report of about 1/3 of my Ancestors!

At no time in our past

 has a president worked so hard 

at making his picks to help at making 

a true milting pot of this milting pot we call 

The United States

 until 

President Joe Biden and in only 17 day!

Can we please give him a break?

I wish to expand on the thinking 

of some of my 

‘Black’ sisters and brothers?

As a fellow descendent, 

I fully believe in ‘Black Lives Matter’!

 

That said;

 You should also know that in my days growing up in this ‘Free Country’

 My ancestor’s lives also matter to me!

 

My ‘Red Ancestors Lives’

did not matter to the 

European-Americans,

still don’t!

That’s 1/3 of my ancestors!

And

My White ancestors;

The Irish Potato Famine (Great Hunger), ruined one-half of the potato crop in 1845, and three-quarters of the crop over the next seven years.

Because the tenant farmers of Ireland

were ruled as 

a colony of Great Britain!         

They were also

 abused for years by

 the European Americans!

So what do you think?

Can we give a real president and vice-president a little slack?

President Joe Biden and Vice-President Kalmala Harris!
