The photo of Jane Arthur Bond’s memorial is from the Find a Grave website.
Whoever wrote that article needs their ass beat. Seriously. That’s the most disrespectful shit I’ve seen in a long time.

Dear yt America, if slavery was SO long ago, and it’s a post-racial society now; why can’t you be honest about what happened? Shouldn’t the white Bonds be able to go; ‘It doesn’t hurt us to admit our ancestors had slaves, ran a plantation, raped said slaves repeatedly and passed them back and forth like a borrowed book, disconnecting blood ties and destroying relationships.‘
Instead the New York Times is there protecting the White Bonds from their reality, while hiding/obscuring everything that made a civil rights leader the way he was.
