Bold move to say "protecting the rights of black people is just like when the white guys I worship fought to keep them enslaved."
a poc friend brought up a serious topic that I don't know how to engage on lol, it is probably well way way outside my lane She brought up "How can someone who is Black wanna be a Christian, especially in America, those folks enslaved our ancestors, you are worshipping the slave owners god"
today i didn’t wear makeup and i hid my head with a man coded hat. today i am man. my income just jumped and i no longer fear being enslaved by what my body does
#MedicalCrime Anarcha, Betsey and Lucy known names of enslaved Black women in the 19th c. who were amongst at least 12 woman that were subjected to experimental gynecologic surgeries without their consent, without anaesthesia by a white physician who is lauded as the “Father of Modern Gynaecology”.
What is up w/ these Black men defending the owners of enslaved people? Do they honestly believe their destiny in that place & time would have been different? I seriously believe that there is a lot of lead in water systems in the U.S. b/c people’s thought processes seem to continue to decline.
I see. It was unfair for the majority population of enslaved Black people to force their value of "don't enslave people" on the beleaguered minority of white enslavers. (I can parse this logic because of the training I've received listening to SCOTUS arguments! Who knew that would come in handy?)
Well I haven't enslaved anyone or started any wars, so I think I'm doing quite a bit better than them actually.

The idea that enslavers were this besieged minority rests on an ahistorical misunderstanding of how slave societies functioned. In MS in 1860, 50% of all families enslaved people. Other families rented enslaved people. Others still wished they could afford to enslave people. It was aspirational.
