Antiracist (46)

RP @nmaahc

The assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. on April 4, 1968 dashed the hopes of black Americans for the commitment of white America to racial equality at home and abroad, as the number of black soldiers in Vietnam supporting the Black Power Movement increased dramatically. Pre-existing racial tension between black and white soldiers increased after King’s assassination, leading to a surge of inter-racial violence within U.S. forces in Vietnam and at home. #APeoplesJourney #ANationsStory⠀
