RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: AMERICAN HISTORY
Floridian History
Native Americans were given land grants
West of the Mississippi, north of the Rio Grande
Choctaw and Cherokee were awarded free
Passage to Oklahoma where the wind blows
Free and the antelopes run wild
General Crook bravely led his troops against
A band of seasoned warriors, women and children
At Sand Creek and Washita River
The gallant Colonel Custer withstood a savage
Attack of Lakota and Cheyenne warriors
At the battle of Little Big Horn
The importation of African slaves was an
Opportunity enhancement program to prepare
Unskilled labor for the modern economy
The razing of Black Tulsa was the result of
Riots and angry mobs objecting to the violence
Suppression measures of law enforcement
And deputized lawful citizens
Lynching was the occasional result of over-
Zealous citizens taking the law into their
Own hands
The internment of Japanese Americans during
The Great War for freedom was simply for
their own protection
Prohibition and the enfranchisement of women
Were the result of wrong thinking and
Unfortunate misinformation
The separation of church and state goes
Against the constitution and the word of God
Donald Trump won two presidential
Elections by a landslide of law abiding free
White citizens
