    The US, a former colony of the UK, was formed on a great but flawed ideal . The preamble to its constitution reads: “ The Preamble to the United States Constitution begins with the words, "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America". Nevertheless, the “WE” didn’t apply to African Slaves who were not seen as equals and not even human. The legacy of the US’ original and greatest sin still plagues it. It has not fully come to term that those they consider others are not going away and are part of the American fabric. The first Immigration Act of 1790 declared the US a white country. The Emergency Quota Act of 1921 place extreme quotas on immigration, especially from non- white countries. It is about to happen again. Shakespeare says what is past is prologued. Blacks cleared land worked the expropriated land, built the US’ economy, profits from their free labour funded other industries, ie, transportation, trkecommiciond, insurance, housing, finance,etc. Their labour built the iconic White House and Capital Building, etc ., yet they are unwanted guests or occupants in those buildings. The Neville Chamberllsin (appeasers), the Benedict Arnolds( traitors), Sambos, and those afflicted with the Stockholm Syndrone are fine , happy and giddy about and with things.
