Uncovering the untold stories of rape in the slavery era.
Long ago during the slave trade era, slaves who were mostly men were enslaved together with their wives and children. This made them vulnerable. They were made to work forcefully to feed their children and avoid shameful acts of rape upon their wives. Our ancestors focused on racial prejudice and yet racial prejudice healed with time but the untold stories of rape as a means to acquire male slaves' cooperation were not only fully ignored but also brushed off the historic
books.
Fiction movies and stories told of Slavery barely mention rape as it sounds disgusting for a white male to rape a black woman. The term ‘white masculinity is no longer in our dictionaries as it hurts the ego of the Americans and might stir the Black Americans. It's not a scar anymore the wound is removed from the body part to avoid heartaches.
As blood is red, and Snow is white the bitter facts remain the same, uncovering the truth is so sad, and painful, and may cause anger. It makes the tears flow from your eyes like the movie, “Letters to God" It takes a part of you that will never be recovered, it opens your eyes but you
can’t do anything about it. But when all hope is gone and you are in despair you feel the power to want to change your present for a better tomorrow. Today you empower yourself with immense knowledge so that tomorrow you will want to tell your kids that the world is full of monsters, but you fought for their freedom and survival.
