Slavery was not a choice but listening to Kanye West is (REDUX)

Oct 30, 2022 | Memory, News & Events

Just so it is clear, I am not jumping on any bandwagon. I wrote this post in May of 2018. I am just reposting today.

There can be no room for racism or Anti-Semitism of any kind from anyone. Period.

Regards,

Anne Bailey
