Indeed, it's also sad that people forget (or, perhaps, never knew) that:

a) there were white slaves, and

b) there were black slave-owners

Yeah. I've been told I should feel bad about what "my" people (white Americans) did to black people before. It's like, bitch, my ancestors weren't even in this country 50 years ago v.v XD before that they were all in Sweden x.x So I claim no responsibility for anything involving the American slave trade x.x

I've said it before. Won't go into a long rant.

I started off super poor in rural Georgia.  Right now, I make over three times the average income of a whole family in my area. I didn't feel sorry for myself or blame anyone. I don't respect anyone who doesn't grab ahold of their situation in life instead of blaming others for "holding them back".I got mine. 

Sorry people take one look at you and blame you for something you had absolutely no fault in. America has become the land of victims and I hate that.
