Comments by "Kasumi Rina" (@KasumiRINA) on "Beloved - Toni Morrison - So You Haven't Read" video.
So you're saying that someone whose family for centuries didn't have the same rights and opportunities as the others, was segregated in a ghetto with worse education, infrastructure and no jobs or way out, weren't affected by it? Like there's no living people who were affected by laws that still worked in the 1960s, really? Saying they don't carry scars of slavery is ridiculous, all these processes that have to do with racism after were direct results of North Atlantic slave trade.

The slave mentality is horrifying, it breaks people in unimaginable ways, like in this case, someone who would rather kill their own children than fight back... it takes centuries of conditioning, and I did see very similar stories in China or in Slavic countries, where people never lived free... It takes a conscious effort to break from the self-destruction cycle. Look at Arab Spring or Color Revolutions, Hong Kong protests, women in Iran etc., all the same problems in any part of the world.
