In 150 years since end of Civil War & ratification of13th Amendment, story of race & America has remained brutally simple one, written on flesh: it is story of black body, exploited to create country's foundational wealth, violently segregated to unite nation after civil war & today still disproportionately threatened, locked up & killed in streets.
