They were also faced with fertile lands that required backbreaking labor, with the attendant risks of heat prostration, sun-stroke, and parasitic infestation. An "immune" population specifically designed by the Creator to work long, hard, and for free as "submissive knee-benders" was the perfect answer to their dilemma...

But to fully justify enslavement, scientists such as Nott had to turn from their naturalistic texts to their Bibles, from which they deduced that Blacks were the children of Ham, son of Noah, who, along with his progeny, was "marked" and condemned to be servant to his brothers for having viewed his father's nakedness. Other similar biblical justifications were found, and Nott even ventured on to a twisted ethical high road when he insisted that yellow fever and malaria were visited upon whites as divine punishment for not enslaving Blacks...

Pragmatic planters and politicians ignored the religious moralizing but embraced the useful fact that Black slaves were the only logical medical choice for backbreaking labor in their sunny fields. The "immunities" in question were usually partial and sometimes imaginary. Planters' own records bear the best evidence that Blacks' immunity to heat prostration was merely a convenient myth...

...Interestingly, the contradiction of the Black slave as both riddled with imperfections from head to toe, and as a hearty laborer who was impervious to most illness escaped the scientific racists. Scientists expressed whichever opinion fit their political needs at the moment, as abolitionist Frederick Douglass suggested when he observed that ninety-nine of one hundred polygenists were Anglo-Saxon slave owners."

Chapter 1- Medical Apartheid, Harriet A. Washington

Yes humans evolved to live here too, but if we're entertaining the idea that an all powerful deity created the earth for any particular species, it's definitely gotta be something from the ocean.

Like at first he’s very firm, pecking your lips as he tells you about his day, and interrupting you as you tell yours, but as time goes on he gets a little bit excited, both hands on your hips as he pulls you to the front of the counter, so his hips are against yours. Your hand finds its way into his hair and you tug on the nape of his neck slightly and he whimpers into your mouth. He slowly rocks his hips and eventually his hands leave your hips to the backs of your thighs as you wrap your legs around him. He’s definitely murmuring how pretty you are, and how much he needs you. He’s now fully grinding against yours, pressing and sucking kisses between your shoulder and jaw, fingers now fiddling with the buttons of your work blouse. You’re now teasing him about how he needs to finish dinner, and he’s humming how dinner can wait. You eventually pull away with swollen lips and his follow you with hooded eyes and he looks so hot. You giggle and push off the counter and head towards your bedroom to get changed, not before giving him a few more kisses. He kinda stands there for a second with a lazy grin before sighing, rubbing his eyes and adjusting his pants. He eventually abandons dinner all together and finds you standing in the middle of the living room in just your bra and panties, his favourite set no less, and he just stands there in awe, then moving as quick as light to eat you up, literally.

I need him biblically, and this is my thought of the day. RAHHHH 😫

it effects everything.

being trans is easier when youre white.

being gay is easier when youre white.

being disabled is easier when youre white.

being a woman is easier when youre white.

being autistic is easier when youre white.

oppression is eased when you are white, as you get extra privileges, and your whiteness is seen as a positive characteristic that in some ways counter-balances your other forms of being a minority. whiteness controls everything.

you are automatically way more innocent in your own oppression as a gay, trans, disabled person because of your whiteness.

three things:

1. it’s true

2. white people get pissed when i bring this up/wear this shirt
