Stumble This








Then there is the little black kid. This image portrays black people as happy-go-lucky docile people, HAPPY to be in the position they were, grateful that they were under the white man's rule (to justify slavery at the time, in the eyes of the common man). You'll notice the way that the little kid ends up sparring with animals... whats really obvious in this clip is that it is meant to reduce the character of these people down to the level of animals, unable to be civil and demonized by animals themselves, as if deserving of such treatment... ie: not human, in order to justify the treatment as nonhumans... Remnants of this bullshit that I know of: the cartoon Animaniacs
that does not mean any other isms in its place......silly college kids.....take more math classes!!!!
(could'nt agree more with gluonium.....if we could only wake up colectively and daily, to our own bullshit....what a world it could be....
