fuckyeahfeminists:abigabby:xjeremyjohnsonx:ubuntuliberation:Did you know that there were Human Zoos on display in Europe and America from the 1870’s to the 1950’s? These public exhibits of humans,often called Negro Villages, usually showed indigenous people in a so-called natural or primitive state. The displays often emphasized the cultural differences between Europeans of Western civilization and non-European peoples. Above is a photo from Amsterdam Holland around 1890, of an African child in one of these Human Zoo exhibits,being fed like an animal by white spectators.Until the 1950s. That means there are living, breathing people, who could have reasonably went to one of these.And people wanna act like this was in 1372. Nah. This makes me want to punch somebodyWhoa. Talk about dehumanization.Just a reminder. -- source link
