let me guess, the secret is that africans and african-americans have been legally freed from the bondage of slavery for decades.

when the fuck is someone going to give me a series about the intricacies of life in the colonies during and after the antebellum south?!

Maybe it's a twist like in "The Village"

The last few years Ive been trying to rid myself of the term "slaves" and move towards "enslaved"

The former can normalize it, while the second emphasizes that it is an action being done to someone.

Also, she looks like this one insta "star" I follow. Idk how else to refer to her- https://www.instagram.com/youngbabycoco/?hl=en

I agree! I definitely was introduced to it on twitter or instagram- not an original realization on my end!

I'm tired of slavery movies and TV
Tell me about sharecroppers, show me the Reformation, give me something else
