LMAO, what the fuck is all the infrastructure hidden in the rainforest of central/south america?
Let alone places like,
The largest pre-Columbian Native American city in Central and South America was Tenochtitlan, the capital of the Aztec Empire, which was estimated to have a population of around 350,000 inhabitants at its peak and served as the foundation for modern-day Mexico City.
They did have huge massive thriving cities at one point in time. But yes, by the time europeans came here, many of these cities simply, disappeared. Its never been explained why.
Indians also gave us things like corn, potatoes, squash, etc. They spent thousands of years of cultivating crops that became the backbone of civilizations.
Not to mention, I myself am thankful to the indians, because they helped my ancestors, like daniel wing, to survive in the new world. It's almost like there were many different tribes of indians all with their own beliefs.
IM SHOCKED I SAY.
Again, my family chose to live in peace with the indians, they didnt fight in any indian wars, or rape/kill indians for their land.
That was pretty much the super rich, the elite, many of the same familys who are exploiting us all today.
Why the fuck would I feel guilt for what my family did when they have been a resounding voice of freedom for hundreds of years?
Yes, Quakers, or the Religious Society of Friends, have historically strived for freedom for all, rooted in their belief in the "inner light" or "that of God in everyone," which affirms the equality of all individuals regardless of gender, race, or social status. This conviction led them to advocate for various freedoms and human rights throughout history, including the abolition of slavery, promoting equal rights for women, and championing religious freedom and freedom of conscience.
Daniel Wing and his brother Stephen Wing and others resisted an oppressive law in the town of Sandwhich which publicly punished men and women by whipping, for “meetings at private houses, for encouraging others in holding meetings, for entertaining the preachers and for the unworthy speeches”. By 1658, Daniel Wing, with others who acted with him, became active converts and there were 18 families who recorded their names in the documents of the society. Writers of 1658-1660 said “We have two strong places in this land, the one at Newport and the other at Sandwhich; almost the whole town of Sandwhich is adhering towards them” and the records of the Monthly Meetings of Friends show that the Sandwhich Monthly Meeting was the first established in America.
I still think its funny that one of them was fined for loaning hunting rifles to the native americans. Considering the natives taught these colonials how to survive by planting/burying corn for the brutal ass winters, which are nothing compared to now. Pretty sure my ancestors likely would have starved to death without their help.
Are we supposed to forget that americas history is entwined with native americans, or black people. We all should be fighting for the same thing. Justice and Equality.
Yet all we do is squabble and blame each other, never pointing the finger at the top.
