Black Descendants Of American Slavery
Understand America from the perspective of Black Descendants of American Slavery
America is a composite of different ethnic groups, cultures, values, and belief systems. These circumstances typically divide groups of people into identity groups fighting for their groups' survival and success. The blending of people in multicultural societies requires development of teaching strategies to overcome divisions. Knowledge of the histories and true experiences of every ethnic group in America is necessary to understand past and current relationships, socially, politically, and interpersonal. What systemic rules and practices have resulted from these relationships that plague America? What systems should we understand that are basic to all nations for effective governance, but benefit some and discriminate against others? Can we navigate successful plans for respectful interactions with every other American?
Black Descendants of American Slavery have a unique history as indigenous to this one country. There are no others native to any other place in the world.

We believe that there is HOPE from History teaching truth to power. In much of American history, non-immigrant Blacks have been portrayed as a people of "lack." Nothing can be further from truth and history has uncovered an abundance of overcoming examples alongside "giving back" values that have built a strong America. This should be known by every American resident.
Setting the record correct. Teaching the inclusive history of American slavery, reconstruction, Jim Crow, segregation, overcoming, contributions to the world, service in every American war, and the continuous systemic racism must be heard and understood before a commitment to "REPAIR" for a people will be understood or agreeable to Americans.
Americans have shown evidence of reformation when they understand that to be fair is to be righteous. Opportunity for all in an equitable environment, regardless of race, creed, religion, or place of origin, is touted as an American belief. If this is so, then knowing the history of racism dealt to many ethnic groups, particularly indigenous Native Americans, can lay the ground rules toward settling debts for BDOAS citizens.
