like the fact that people are saying, "we/our forebears were killed, trafficked, raped, genocided, muilated, brutalized, and are still facing echoes of the same and the aftermath of those blows to this day, all while the memories of those before us are erased when they are not denigrated and desecrated," and some of y'all think the only reason they have to be upset is MONEY?
y'all think this is about MONEY. okay.
meanwhile,
Tumblr media
so you agree? to those who stand to benefit from all the above actions and reduplications of the histories and narratives that led to them, the genocided and enslaved represent an investment of capital and a means to acquire it, either through bodies living or dead, labor, trafficking, the act of dehumanization itself, or land, so the colonial agenda has always been one of a reduction to some humans' value to property, and to a dollar price?
you agree with the slavers and slaughterers that what's important is who the blood money goes TO and not that the blood was for sale to begin with?
