Odalisque was a white slave girl very beautiful that painters painted throughout history but changed the narrative. this predates (bacons rebellion - until then there where both white and black slaves living exactly the same) anyway this is about Odalisque and the times.

The Word “Slave” Came From My People

Here is an article from Russian/East. European. It’s pretty interesting.

she broke it down clearly with the history context so yeah wow that shyt is the truth but lol at some of her tears like :

Were we angry? Yes. Did we feel dehumanized? Yes. Did we feel we are being unfairly stereotyped? Yes.

A couple of years later, around the Brexit referendum, I had a performance review with my English boss. In that same conversation, after praising me for having done a great job managing my team and my project, he also said:

“I don’t mind people immigrating from Bulgaria. Who else will pick our strawberries?”

Did that make my blood boil? Yes.

she was very emotional. do you happen to know any sort of stories about something similar like interesting finds? :feedme:

and by the way the painting in the article is dope. really illustrative but it still captures "despair".
