Charlottesville Was The Most Traumatic Event Of My Young Life, But It Won’t Stop Me

I’ve been an activist since I was 13 years old, I’ve been to numerous protests but NOTHING was ever this bad! My physical injuries will eventually heal, but the mental trauma will last forever.

KKK Leader Tells Afro-Latina Journalist He’ll ‘Burn’ Her Out Of His Property
Ilia Calderón said she’d “never felt so much hate, so much contempt in my life.” During the interview, Barker told Calderón that she was the first black person to ever set foot on his property. “I’m upset that I’ve seen you,” Barker told her. “I mean, I see you every day — all your type. I’ve been here over 20 years, and we’ve never had a black person or whatever you wanna call yourself, you’re a mongrel to me.” When Calderón defiantly asked if he was going to chase her off the property, he responded by saying: “No, we’re gonna burn you out.” Barker called Calderón a racial slur, which she calmly told him she found “offensive.” At one point he also told her: “Look at your eyes and look at my eyes. I’m way more superior than you’ll ever be.” Calderón asked both Barker and his wife, Amanda, if they were part of a hate group — both rejected the idea and described themselves as a Christian organization.

Why Black Women Are Protesting A Statue Of This Famed Gynecologist
J. Marion Sims, the “father of modern gynecology,” has a disturbing history.

J. Marion Sims is known as the “father of modern gynecology,” and his statue currently stands at the New York Academy of Medicine in East Harlem.

J. Marion Sims was a gynecologist in the 1800s who purchased Black women slaves and used them as guinea pigs for his untested surgical experiments. He repeatedly performed genital surgery on Black women WITHOUT ANESTHESIA because according to him, "Black women don't feel pain.” Despite his inhumane tests on Black women, Sims was named “the father of modern gynecology”, and his statue currently stands right outside of the New York Academy of Medicine. #FightSupremacy
