A reminder that slavery was not centuries ago, we are still dealing with effects of that horror.

Emily Meggett (left) and Isabell Meggett Lucas sit together at the National Museum of African American History and Culture in front of a slave cabin on display that they grew up in.

2.) scene came from emo and emo came from hardcore punk movement in the 80’s

3.) punk culture was birthed by marginalized ppl (whether they were poor, lgbt, poc, etc) who unified against capitalism and martial institutions

4.) punk rock (and all modern rock) evolved from blues and blues were a music genre that came from black americans as an expression of the oppression they face

no cultural trend starts naturally. and all counter cultures come from marginalized ppl, bc they are cultures that COUNTER against whoever leads the ruling institutions (most likely rich white ppl)
