Colonizers have stolen, murdered, lynched their way to the top since they got here. Allow me to elaborate. Did you know when the US took control of Mexican land (Tx, Az, NM, CA) that they “allowed” Mexicans 2 bcome citizens just to later take their citizenship away &ship them
To Mexico. White people stole their ranches leaving them with nothing. Did you know during the Great Depression the Propaganda was they were in the Great Depression bc of mexicans & they rounded them up on a train and deported them.
Do you know the knowledge we have now for gynecology was bc they experimented on black women WITHOUT any kind of anesthesia. Blacks womens Blood was spilt for this.
Do you know the story of Henrietta lacks? A poor black women with middle school education made one of the biggest contributions to medical history ever! Her cells taken from a cervical cancer biopsy Became the 1st immortal human cells that reproduced infinitely. Now called HeLa

Did you know doctors performed HYSTERECTOMIES on Native American women and told them it was irreversible. Guess what they weren’t ever charged either bc it was done on their tribal land.

Signing for. & burned their tubes so they could no longer have children. These women didn’t even know what happened to them until they tried having more kids! & these doctors were 1. Never punished . & 2. Said it was bc Latin women & all their children are taking our tax $$
Have you heard of the Tuskegee Syphilis is experiment on black men from 1932-1972. They experimented on 600 black men for “research” even gave black men syphilis and left them untreated for it even tho there was penicillin. These men were told they were receiving free healthcare
From the govt. The men who already had syphilis were never told they had it so they couldn’t infect others. This lasted for 40 years and the funding ran out for it and the men were left untreated.
Have you heard of the eugenics movement in the United States? That’s where Hitler got his idea of cleansing. They performed experiments, sterilized & Participated in lobotomy on poor white ppl in the south in an effort to cleanse the aryan bloodline.
This wasn’t performed on black ppl bc the belief was the blood of black ppl could never be cleansed. They don’t teach you this shit in school. I didn’t learn any of this from HISD. I only know bc I specifically took thousand dollar classes on this in college.
They don’t teach the true history of this country bc they know how outrageous heartless and evil it is. The system was specifically constructed against black and brown ppl. And it’s better for the masses not to know how much blood has been spilled.
