Maybe it wasn’t about the people at all. Maybe it was that small innocent child. Maybe she’s nursing that child because its own mother wasn’t able to. Until you know the circumstances of it, idk. Just shut up and move along with life. Typing about how this shit infuriates you on the internet isn’t gonna do anything so idk. Just stop. I am just leaving this here as proof of white sociopathy. Alright so let’s give this photo some context. Here is a black woman, most likely a slave, being forced to breastfeed a child that is not hers and is very likely the child of her captor, her abuser. She is posing for a photo with her breasts hanging out because she has no right to privacy or modesty or body autonomy. She does not own her body, the child’s parents do, so she doesn’t get to say things like, “I’m uncomfortable having my breasts hanging out to be immortalized in a photo”. She’s probably being made to smile or ‘look happy’ because if she dares to look unhappy in a photo that primarily features this child, she might be beaten or worse. Oh yes, she looks totally thrilled. I don’t know how anyone could mistake her face for happy? just pointing out a small fact. this photo is in relation to slavery, which as i recall ended about 150 to 160 years ago. sooooooooo why are you throwing stupid shit on my tumblr acting like this is an issue that matters. you know what matters? modern day racism being support by conservatives in our government. you know what else matters? our economy dying under the stress of our government being so corrupt it can’t run our country anymore. you know what else is relevant? gay rights. and whats more? our soldiers dying in wars and for causes that don’t help or forward our people to our brighter tomorrow but just fufill some politicians agenda. lots of things in our country today are more important issues than slavery which ended a century and a half ago. get with the times. you want to make a difference? make a difference about an issue that matters. did you a white person just come in and tell PoC that something that still effects them is “irrelevant” and whine about the fact that people are discussing a picture? you know what your response could have been? “this doesn’t concern me so I’ll SHUT THE FUCK UP” this shit is relevant and your reaction? is part of the reason why Why is it so hard to look at the picture and understand gravity of it? -- source link
