While our country has dedicated plenty of our monuments to many great African Americans in various cities and towns, there are still a host of individuals who made a tremendous impact in this country who have yet to be honored in this manner.

Here’s a list of five individuals we feel deserve this honor.

5. 4 Little Girls — Birmingham, Alabama.

Addie Mae Collins, Cynthia Wesley, Carole Robertson and Denise McNair were 14-year-old girls who were spending a Sunday morning in church in 1963 when a bomb killed them. The bomb was planted by white supremacists from the Ku Klux Klan meant to frighten Black people from being involved with the civil rights movement.

A monuments for these girls would be a reminder of the cruelty and evil of racism as well as the good, young and innocent who fought and continue to fight it.

4. Fannie Lou Hamer

There is a drive to have a statue of Fannie Lou Hamer in Ruleville, Mississippi. Hamer was one of the most prominent organizers of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC).

Hamer famously led the delegation of the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party to the Democratic National Convention in 1964, which led to the Democratic Party’s support for Civil Rights and several southern racist Democrats leaving the party.

3. James Weldon Johnson

James Weldon Johnson was a great author, leader and activist. He wrote the Negro National Anthem, “Left Every Voice,” wrote “The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man,” and worked with W.E.B. DuBois to fight lynching with the NAACP.

A true renaissance man, Weldon should be honored with his own statue.

Too often he is forgotten among the list of Black leaders who fought against racism. A monument should help solve that problem.

2. Stokely Carmichael

Stokley Carmichael was a former leader of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) and was a very powerful civil rights organizer.

He would later help with the Black Power movement, becoming “Honorary Prime Minister” and later would become an icon to the Pan Africanist movement, moving to Ghana and changing his name to Kwame Ture.

As an icon to generations of Black activism, Carmichael needs a statue of his own.

1. Nat Turner

Nat Turner led a slave revolt in Virginia that killed more than 100 people in 1831.

As slavery is part of America, it must be remembered and those who died fighting against it must be honored, whether they fought for their freedom or died facing it.

In order for America to really distance itself from slavery, it must honor the heroes who fought against it; and one of those heroes is Nat Turner.

    How about monuments for all the humans that are the victims of colored crime? How about a monument dedicated to all the human taxpayers that support your useless and parasitic sub-species living off the taxpayer tit? A monument to all humans for having to tolerate coloreds would be appropriate as well.

    There are NO coloreds that have done anything to positively contribute to human society. There is one monument for coloreds I could suggest however:

    A monument for the ships that went down and were lost at sea carrying all the coloreds back to their muddaland.

    There are thousands of pictures of coloreds everywhere Iwillbefree. They are in the newspapers all the time. It is called mug shots. Your species is not “black hued” but s**t brown. Every time you look in a mirror you see it and know it.

    I am of the belief that no person — no matter who they were, what they’ve accomplished or what they were apart of — deserves a statue or a monument. No man or woman is greater than another. That goes for athletes to political figures to everyone else in between.

    According to the Bible, we are no different than the beasts of the Earth.

    Besides, that’s the way God feels:

    “Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.”

    What more entitlements do you “individuals ” want? You’re already parasitic organisms feeding off healthy workers to live your useless lives. You make us humans sick. A disease that the CDC should take care of. I see nothing more than a bunch of uppity coloreds that got themselves made good for a reason. You should be seen nor heard, but returned to place of origin, never to infest human society again.

    I ain’t no beast! A beast is an animal, but you are the white beast of the Earth! This is what the Black Messiah is talking about, when he says that YOU are no different than the beasts of the Earth because YOU ARE A BEAST!

    Every xmess negroids and caucasoids put up ‘graven images’ of this ‘white’ ficticious character called ‘jesus, ‘ white angels flying around, and surrounded by animals [beast]. We are already living ‘in hell,’ especially Black people, the ONLY thang that’s beneath the earth is dead folks, more dirt, beast, like [rats, snakes, and other rodents] and insects that live in the dirt.

    The Black Messiah doesn’t feel that way. He said that, I have said, “Ye are gods, and all of you are children of the Most High.”

    I’M A CHILD OF THE BLACK MESSIAH; NOT A BEAST OF SATAN!

    Yes you and your sub-species are beasts, and most definitely beasts of burden to humans.

    I see you are in fantasy land with your “n****r jebus”. LOL !!! Your kind all believe you were flyin’ majikal n****rs until your pineal gland was “stolen” from you. There is no religion for any of you as you are all soulless and godless BEASTS. You are not a “child” of n****r jebus as there is no n****r jebus. All doc**ented historical paintings of Jesus are of a human not a n****r. N****rs are known for changing their “history” every chance you get and nothing is doc**ented from your ilk. The only “writing” you can do is scratches in the dirt from a stick while scraping for bugs to eat. Look in the mirror into your eyes that are yellow and soulless. There is no soul or God there. A shark has more “soul” in its eyes than a n****r.

    I think you were trying to eek Xmas and put “xmess”. LOL !!! The xmess you all know is the filthy nests you all live in.

    Since you are living in hell defer to your first post of you hanging. That will end any hell for you and the humans that have to see, smell and hear you. Since, to repeat once again, you are soulless and godless it is no sin to be a flyin’ majikal n****r with a rope to help you fly.

    I willbfree,

    First of all, I’m not white. I’m black. Second of all if you truly are a man of the Lord, you would understand that Ecclesiates 3:18-19 that says: “I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts. For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all is vanity. ”

    All this means is that people are susceptible to all sorts of challenges just like beasts. Considering God gave life (breath) to both man and animal, individuals shouldn’t think of themselves as above anyone (or anything) or better than anyone (or anything) because of whatever positions, titles or status that are held in this carnal world.

    In the eyes of God, none of that matters. In that sense we are no different than beasts. The only difference is that God gave humans the intellect to understand the difference between how a man should behave compared to a beast.

    Oh, and I’m well aware that blacks are the Israelites (God’s chosen people) spoken about in the Bible, and that God is a black when examining scriptures that describe him as a man with wool-like hair and skin of bronze.

    You just showed me how ignorant you are about the True OURstory about the little horse jockey you are talking about. For your information you will be paying homage to the FIRST BLACK jockey in amerikkka to win a Kentucky Derby and he held the record for years!

    The majority of the jockeys, in the derby were BLACK MEN back in the early races.

    Please read this article:

    When tens of thousands of fans assemble in Louisville, Kentucky, May 2 for the 135th Kentucky Derby, they will witness a phenomenon somewhat unusual for today’s American sporting events: of some 20 riders, none are African American. Yet in the first Kentucky Derby in 1875, 13 out of 15 jockeys were black.

    Among the first 28 derby winners, 15 were black. African American jockeys excelled in the sport in the late 1800s. But by 1921, they had disappeared from the Kentucky track and would not return until Marlon St. Julien rode in the 2000 race.

    African American jockeys’ dominance in the world of racing is a history nearly forgotten today.

    YOU STILL WANT ONE?

    The only gods your kind has are those voodoo witch doctors your kind tends to believe in. There’s no black messiah for anything…..you have no souls and will never have one at all. Remember this boy, if it wasn’t for the European man, you’d still be living off the land chucking spears at rodents and monkeys, taking warm piss showers under cows, and covering your bodies in a dung/tree sap/mud concoction thinking it will take the stink away.

    The only fictitious anything, is the fact that your kind claims to have founded all human civilizations on the planet, from the Greeks, Egyptians, Romans, Olmecs, Chinese and others, when in the rest of Apefrikka, there isn’t so much as a remnant of a paved road, or a civilization, or aqueducts, nor any written tablets. That of course requires intelligence to accomplish. Something that your kind will never develop.

    No. God’s not a beast. The scriptures I posted were saying that we are no different than beasts in that we are vulnerable just like them. Considering that is the case, we shouldn’t consider ourselves more important than others.

    That’s why it is written that the same things that can befall a beast can also befall a man.

    All it means is that we all should stay humble and realize we need to rely on God.
