To even get a chance at getting a book, he had to impersonate a white man and even as a white man, a very advantaged thing in this time, he had to say "please" and beg for it. https://nowcomment.com/documents/250942?scroll_to=2288739 https://nowcomment.com/documents/250942?scroll_to=2288739 Sun, 24 Jan 2021 20:25:11 -0500 "Self-defense" isn't exactly something you brag about. I think the subtext here is that the watchman sought out a fight and more or less murdered these two people. It's just absolutely inhuman and I can't believe how this was normalized. https://nowcomment.com/documents/250942?scroll_to=2288726 https://nowcomment.com/documents/250942?scroll_to=2288726 Sun, 24 Jan 2021 23:47:20 -0500
