Black people did not "come to this country seeking a better life."
They were kidnapped from their homes in Africa, dragged in chains and loaded onto slave ships. Treated not like human beings but like things, commodities to be traded and used to enrich others.
Tens of millions of enslaved Africans died before even reaching America, so terrible were the conditions on the slave ships. Those who survived the trip and were then sold to plantation owners.

Las personas negras no llegaron a este país “buscando una mejor vida”.
Fueron secuestrados de sus hogares en África, fueron arrastrados con cadenas y puestos en barcos de esclavos. No se les trataba como seres humanos sino como cosas, mercancía para comercializar y los utilizaban para enriquecer a otros.
Tan terribles eran las condiciones en los barcos de esclavos que decenas de millones de africanos esclavizados murieron antes de llegar a América. Los que sobrevivieron al viaje fueron vendidos a dueños de plantaciones.
The Horrors of Lynching: Photographs and Postcards
Note to readers: This post contains graphic and disturbing images.
During the late 19th and early 20th century, thousands of photographs and postcards of Black Americans killed by white mobs in racist terror lynchings were collected, traded and sent through the U.S. postal service.
The postcards and photographs, depicting gruesome images of the bodies of Black men, women and children who had been tied to trees, mutilated, tortured, shot and burned alive by white mobs, were often distributed as souvenirs and saved as mementos in family albums and stored away in attics for safekeeping.
The lynching photographs often captured the bodies of the murdered Black Americans and the hundreds of white people — including children — who gathered to witness the public spectacle of lynchings. According to historians, in more than half of these photos and postcards, white people were shown smiling and celebrating the spectacles.
WHITE PEOPLE MONETIZED THE MURDER OF BLACK PEOPLE
Lynching photographs and postcards were shrewdly distributed — often for profit — across communities by hand and through the U.S. mail. They were often sold for as little as a quarter, which would be worth about $3.46 today.

Los horrores de los linchamientos: fotografías y postales
Nota para los lectores: Esta publicación contiene imágenes gráficas e inquietantes.
Descripción de primera imagen: [Cinco afroamericanos fueron colgados de un cornejo en el condado de Sabine, Texas, en 1908 como "una advertencia para todos los negros".]
Traducción de la postal:
Esta es sólo la rama de un árbol de Cornejo;
Un emblema de la SUPREMACIA BLANCA.
Una lección que una vez se enseñó en la escuela de los Pioneros:
que esta es una tierra de GOBIERNO DEL HOMBRE BLANCO.
Una vez, temprano en la mañana, los blancos le dijeron al Hombre Rojo que enmendara su camino.
El negro, ahora, por gracia eterna, debe aprender a permanecer en el lugar del negro.
En el Soleado Sur, la Tierra de los Libres, que la SUPREMACÍA BLANCA sea para siempre.
Que esto sea una advertencia para todos los negros, o sufrirán el destino del árbol de Cornejo.
A finales del siglo XIX y principios del siglo XX, se recopilaron, comercializaron y enviaron a través del servicio postal de Estados Unidos miles de fotografías y postales de estadounidenses negros asesinados por turbas blancas en linchamientos terroristas racistas.
Las postales y fotografías, que mostraban imágenes espantosas de los cuerpos de hombres, mujeres y niños negros que habían sido atados a árboles, mutilados, torturados, fusilados y quemados vivos por turbas blancas, a menudo se distribuían como souvenirs y se guardaban como recuerdos en álbumes familiares.
Las fotografías de los linchamientos a menudo capturaban los cuerpos de los estadounidenses negros asesinados y los cientos de personas blancas (incluyendo niños) que se reunían para presenciar el espectáculo público de los linchamientos. Según los historiadores, en más de la mitad de estas fotografías y postales, se mostraba a personas blancas sonriendo y celebrando los espectáculos.
LOS BLANCOS MONETIZARON EL ASESINATO DE LOS NEGROS
Se distribuyeron astutamente fotografías y postales de linchamientos (a menudo con fines de lucro) entre las comunidades, en mano y por correo postal. A menudo se vendían por tan solo veinticinco centavos, lo que hoy valdría unos 3.46 dólares.
Descripción de segunda imagen: [Una postal de un linchamiento en Duluth. 15 de Junio, 1920.]
