Let's not forget "Alligator bait"

Absolutely sickening

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Its amazing what people will do when you paint a group as being inferior to you. Suddenly all qualms of equality as humans is thrown out and something like African dodgers or African Alligator bait becomes a sport.

Some disgusting realities in this thread, but its a bitter pill that people in power need to swallow. A thread like this should be front and center of this forum, if only because then people cant ignore that the white majority have treated black people as subhuman not only in the past, but there is still prevalence today.

Im a 1st generation American from immigrant parents, but nonetheless I cant help but feel guilt that "I have it good" compared to black people. Fuck, using babies as bait. Horrifying.

America really fucking hates black people.

Like seething and unrelenting hatred.

And it still happens today, it's just hidden better.

It's in a different form, but I wouldn't say it's hidden.

If you printed out every racist comment from Facebook, Reddit, Twitter, etc. it would probably stretch to the moon and back. And sure, if you asked them, a lot of those people would say that they're not really racist and are just doing it to be silly or have fun. Just like all the fine folks throwing baseballs at the nigger baby! It wasn't really about racism, they were just having some fun at the county fair. The good ol' days!

God that last photo. It just hits home. Children were dehumanized in such a way. How many lives were just disregarded? Its so damn depressing

Fuck... :/

You think this is bad, I suggest looking into how black people were treated for the advancement of medical knowledge. This might make you angry, but that will make you cry.

I can't research it myself. It hurts me too much.

Yes like Vertus Hardiman for example:
www.afro.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Vertus1.jpg
I'll link to his picture instead of posting it directly. Everyone should look at the horrors this country has put him through though.

Vertus Wellborn Hardiman (March 9, 1922 – June 1, 2007) was a victim of a US government human radiation experiment at the age of 5 that left him with a painful skull deformity that forced him to cover his head for 80 years.[1]

Hardiman was born in Lyles Station, India.[2] In 1928, Vertus attended Lyles Consolidated School where he and nine other children were severely irradiated during a medical experiment conducted at the local county hospital. To get parental consent the experiment was misrepresented as a new therapy for the scalp fungus known as ringworm. The radiation of the skull led to immediate symptoms but also to a severe progressive necrosis of the bone all through his life.

Grossly disfigured, Hardimann bore this injustice with remarkable dignity. In 1945 Vertus traveled to California in search of broader opportunity. In 1946 he worked for the County of Los Angeles General Hospital, where he served with distinction. Vertus lived his last years in Altadena, California. Hardiman died at age 85.
