i've mentioned this before,but for my MA & coursework during my PhD,I had to read so much abt the transatlantic slave trade/slavery,genocidal violence against indigenous ppl in the americas, & colonialism & it was very hard to get through the readings w/out pausing to just cry+

and it's frustrating that so much of this is just overlooked or intentionally obscured from history instruction until much later on. all of this information should be common knowledge from as soon as we start school. imagine where we'd be if we all had this exposure early.

it also makes me wonder where things are now re: numbers, considering colonialism in the americas is an *ongoing* project, as is intentional violence against indigenous people. the number stated above is only a snapshot in time.

It’s awful to think about tbh and Americans walk around like they own everything with no regard for the people who were here first.

History in U.S. public schools is a history of the winners, the ruling classes & their sycophants. By the time students reach today's neoliberal universities, the critical intellectual is not only isolated but then burdened w/ bringing consciousness to the blinded masses.
