Hit The Nigger Baby
Can you even imagine how dehumanizing and demeaning this game was for all people with melanated beautiful black skin? This wasn't that long ago. This was a fun game that white people played starting as early as 1800s and only ending in the 1960s at carnivals or state fairs. They used white men in blackface and black men to entertain themselves. The person would stick their head through a canvas curtain to try and dodge the ball thrown at them for the cost of a dime to when a prize. You know how excruciating it probably was! These are the stains we can't seem to get out of America. I was never taught this. No one passed this hurtful knowledge on to me. I learned this on social media. A lot of our ancestors didn't like sharing these stories because it was very painful and traumatizing. You have to study your history black people!
A lot of people in the black and white communities still see the evidence of black people being targets. Here is the link to the information.
