Exactly!

The article makes mention of slaves from Congo. King Leopold II of Belgium murdered over 10 million Congolese, men women and children, even maimed them, cut of limbs as punishment. Some those murdered numbers could've been 15 million. The biggest genocide the world doesn't talk about.

@phxbillcee True...when they were just as horrific as each other's deeds!

@phxbillcee Belgium even had a zoo with Congolese kids in cages.

@TimeOutForMe All depends who is being attacked I guess

@Canndue No, it is about what color the victims are, imho.

@BirdMan1 you're definitely right about that. The reason why the world only remembers one genocide too and not the other. The one genocide was black, the other white. so you're spot on imho too

@BirdMan1 be it color, nationality, sex, etc (pick your oppressed groups) we can talk about the Armenian genocide, Pol Pot, native Americans, conquistadors, inquisitions….man’s inhumanity to man knows no boundaries…

@Canndue Too damned true.

Yeah, good luck making that come True..

That ugly past should not ever be repeated. Slavery continued as "they", the culprits, deprived them of an education. I always say the greatest ills of apartheid in my opinion, was to deprive the greater nation of a decent education, this deliberate cowardice to ensure continued slavery.

@TimeOutForMe I want to have Conservatives as slaves, then I would not feel too bad about treating them like shit. What goes around comes around.

@TimeOutForMe The freed sharecroppers were not much better off than the slaves. Debt is really the current slavery…

@Canndue that may have been a result of Lincoln's assassination, giving the presidency to a bigot like Johnson.
