    It could as easily been 1840 as 1940 in this picture. Not much had changed for the African American.

    They wonderful pictures, the last time I pick cotton was in 1965, I spend all of my youth, and my teens years picking cotton, I have a picture taken in1950 of my oldest brother on top of cotton, I'm writing a book of my cotton days, I thing this part of our history, of the Mexican, American cotton pickers, not to much is know about us, from the early forties to the middle of the sixties, those were our golden years, than the cotton machine, kind took over, and the Vietnam War, because it took most our young men to War. I was looking at the cotton sacks, our were made different, we had a four inch strap to protect our shoulder, a wire going half way around the mouth of sack, this way it alway stay open, making much easier to throw the cotton, back inside the sack without looking back. I just made my first cotton, made out of duck Canvas, it nine feet long. Thanks again for all the beauiful pictures, Martin Chapa, El Milero

    Black and Apache sexual assaulters (BASA) control the non revenue facilities/programs in Arizona and they do whatever they can to block witnesses/marks/victims from letting the police and the public know what's going on because the BASA conceal that groups of genociders are using the facilities/programs to slay men and women in uniforms who patrol the cities. The BASA said if the genociders are caught the BASA won't get "free (mass) p*ssy" anymore or be able to "put women in their place". For instance, the BASA have the witnesses/marks/victims social media accounts suspended, comments removed, steal/smash their phones, play music over their cries for help, file bogus motions, ad nauseam. This morning a woman told Eric in front of security at 230 S 12th Ave that the campus, since it's controlled by the BASA, is blocking her and the other marks/victims from telling Phoenix Police what everyone is doing!
