@quantumblackne2 Harvard sought a “pure type” someone not the product rape or sexual exploitation. He believes if an Enslaved had one drop of white blood, that would make them superior to the pure African!

if im not mistaken the Harvard Professor had to go all the way to South Carolina to find a slave to match the "Blacks are inferior" idea he wanted to portray. @tamaralanier possible you can confirm? i don't think i'm making this up. 🤔 #ADOS

@4DaSoulPeople this makes me think of the #FreeRenty issue bc i think i heard somewhere that Harvard Prof Louis Agassiz commissioned the daguerreotypes to prove the superiority of the yt race. but he had trouble finding slaves "ethnic looking" enough bc by 1850 we were already 6th generation 🇺🇸

@samoryba @congofriends @ProfClaiborne Renty NEVER forget his homeland; he wanted his children to always remember who they were and whose they were! Harvard can’t never take that from him and they can’t take that from me!

Our @congofriends support for Congo is about reconstructing the missing pages of African, Diasporic, and word history. Stories like Sister @TamaraLanier’s struggle to restore Papa Renty’s Ka-image to their clan history indicates that this is also Family-business. @ProfClaiborne
