Too bad the Emancipation Proclamation freed no one.

The anarchists of Antifa and Burning Looting Mobs do not care about history, they just want to erase all of it, like every communist regime in history.

Muhammad Ali’s Great-Great-Great-Grandfather

That's just preposterous. I can barely find information about my own ggg-grandfathers in England and Germany and those were advanced civilizations with extensive written civil and church records. In Africa, there was no written language and nothing but oral traditions and stories passed down. This is just a silly feel-good story to MAYBE keep the lunatics from destroying the statue.

Did You Know the Freed Slave Kneeling Before Lincoln Was Muhammad Ali’s Great-Great-Great-Grandfather?

No, I did not know that. And I still don't know that.

I 'know' [read: feel] that it is Thomas Tidwwell's Great-Great-Great-Grandfather on his Mothers side.

He is ‘rising up’, not kneeling!

More importantly: Did Muhammad Ali know?
