By 1862, thinking he couldn't maintain support for emancipation - a necessary step to winning the Civil War - if the Union didn't deport slaves once they were free.

Well that’s what “Isolationism” & “Imperialism” does to a country’s relations with other nations. The Nation “Snubbed” tends to get left behind. Release the Epstein files before the Midterms2026! www.instagram.com/reel/DOHdTbU... #repost #reshare #releasethefiles #isolationism #americanimperialism

I'll comment That was like, one of the worst effects of American imperialism is the globalization of the exploitation of black culture, right ? Because if you have a country with an American military base, one hundred percent, your media has been affected by America has been fed to you in a certain way. With America's soft power is no conti. Txt, but the subtext in the media that would be harmful in America is still being sent overseas. And then you add on global anti blackness, which is why African countries, anything subsaharan is seen as lesser does also race science, like black peoples being seen as inherently inferior, just off the basis of being black. You met colorism on top of that, which doesn't have to be one to one with black people, right ? Because it can be in several different cultures. But if dark skin is considered poor, it's considered an educated. It's considered something not elegant, not clean. It's just layers upon layers upon layers upon layers of things. And so when you try to have conversations where you're like, Hey, hey, there's a lot of really deep history here that goes more than just a static. So more than just language, it's more than just words get hit with. It's not that deep. It's not that important because it's uncomfortable and You actually have to speak about why things exist away, they exist, and how they hurt and harm certain people and let other people get off the hook. Actually, when it comes to black American stuff, because there's so many conversations to talk about the commodification of hood culture of blackness, but we can't even get there that God. That's an in - house conversation. It's like, Hey, these are real people that you think are jokes and that you're laughing at and that you're trying to emulate who have to navigate the world as the thing that you're dressing up as. That's not a costume for them. They experienced the world in that way. Color of their skin, the way that they dressed, the way that they speak is an active marker on their life forever. But haven't tried to explain that while navigating. Haven't actually be black in this world yourself, share, believe, inspire blacks, be.

The president however, didn't carry out his duty under the treaty to restore the Queen, [so] the Queen didn't grant amnesty to insurgents. The state of war continued.”

Historian Adriane Lentz-Smith wrote, “Most of the Cuban army was black.” and “White American troops ‘showed less contempt for the white-skinned Spanish enemy before them than for the black battling alongside the.’”

Without permission from the U.S. State Department, Minister Stevens recognized the new government and proclaimed #Hawaii a United States protectorate. The treaty was not ratified before the one Administration was replaced by another.

I say Canada just skips the progressive discipline and just shut down our electrical exports for a week or so. Gas can be next week, if they haven't gotten the message loud and clear by then. #OCanada, #Fuck47, #fucktrump, #americanimperialism, #landgrabs #remember1812

Because #WhiteSupremacism is often steeped in toxic masculinity. The “desire” of American war fighters “to prove [their] manhood burned so hot that it blinded [them] to the moment when a war [they’d] joined to free people from imperialism became a war to subdue a colony.”
