It's Flag Day-June 14.

@NativePortlander1970 That's fine with me. Juneteenth was a great day for the enslaved people.

@exexec My Great Grandmother's parents, and my Great Grandfather's mother, were Irish slaves, aka "indentured servants", where's their holiday?

@NativePortlander1970 Can you not be happy for others that were once in that same position? And hopefully there will be a "day" for all people that were once enslaved and until then we celebrate the small steps

@black4white When one race is put on an already month long pedestal, while the rest of us are ignored, I would say, no.

@black4white Your name is literally black and white, so you ignore us others, the Asians, the Jewish, the Irish and Scots, etc, to you it's ONLY ONE race that matters.

@NativePortlander1970 NO !!! no !! no !! and no!!!! That is so far from the truth its CRAZY....

@black4white How is it far from the truth, hmmm?

@black4white I'm part First Nations Native, my ancestors were genocided for land, called primative savages, prove me wrong.

@black4white Maybe has something to do with being a NativedPortlander.

@NativePortlander1970 Why would i try to prove you wrong... i will believe what you tell me and try to have empathy and understanding for you situation and or views... :-) i have ZERO want to wish ill-will upon you or any one else... NOT how i roll.
