“Colonizers needed a way to justify enslavement, genocide and forced conversion. So they painted African and Indigenous religions as evil.”

“But if your ancestors were enslaved in this country, then there’s a direct lineage-based tie to harms that were inflicted during enslavement and in the after lives thereafter.”

“There was only depression, and a hopeless enslavement to an inhuman, uncaring foreign bureaucracy.... No American who has gone to the KGB has not come to regret it.”
