I used to be enraged whenever a white person would say racism has been around ‘for ages,’ and that we can never get rid of it.
I’m out here trying to heal from my trauma — and here they are, telling me about how the Mongol Empire hated everybody and how actually white people were one of the first to be enslaved.
These facts never helped, given the overwhelming amount of racism in the world today is a direct consequence of European colonialism on the rest of the world.
