@Marilyn_Joyce1 This still happens, minus the explicit slave labor (which is still a major issue in other regions). Workers are still exploited with regard to their wages and how much they produce and those at the top are paid disproportionately for the work of others 🤷‍♂️

"If the nation-state in miniature
that is the University of Chicago can find the strength to transform itself, perhaps
the nation as a whole can find the strength to do so as well."

"If the survivors of crimes against humanity
can mobilize collectively and provide a shining example of what is tangibly possible in terms of reparations, other collectives around the nation (and indeed around the world) will no doubt follow."

The afterlives of slavery are still very much apparent even today and in recent history.

Since the turn to neoliberal policies, the rate and severity of economic crises around the world has increased significantly.

Neoliberalism maintains the status quo.

#AuburnWorldHistory

[hunter @HDLHISTORY]

David Harvey defines neoliberalism as a political project initiated by the corporate capitalist class in order to suppress the power of labor.

@CesarOsorio907 I agree. The American empire's extended influence and share of power has been on been on the decline for decades. America's global image has also been falling as more countries see the true faults of the U.S.

Declassified footage of a UFO taken by U.S Navy pilots in 2004:

@sophia_ryan5 Yeah, I'm not sure I'd bother. Most likely, I'd probably just rationalize it as some plane or even an optical illusion. However, if I were convinced, I may record it to get a second opinion🤷‍♂️

[hunter @HDLHISTORY]

With regards to UFOs, I think having an open and transparent government would be more beneficial. I get the notion behind "what you don't know can't hurt you," but I feel that something of this nature, if real, would be better seen as fact than conspiracy.

#AuburnWorldHistory

[hunter @HDLHISTORY]

Having decades of separate civilian and even governmental testimonials regarding UFOs and extraterrestrial life is beyond coincidental IMO.

@wareagl64106818 Historical videos really provide an extra layer to how we're able to learn and perceive history. It's amazing that we're able to get a glimpse into Jeresulum 108 years ago and see how different it used to be.

"In textbooks, the events of May 15, 1948, make no mention of how Palestinians experienced the Nakba and instead represent Israel as a heroic David defeating the many enemies arrayed against it."

[hunter @HDLHISTORY]

The Absentees' Property Law was the main legal instrument used by Israel to take possession of the land belonging to the Palestinian refugees.

Between December 1947 to January 1949, Zionist forces, ethnically cleansed and destroyed about 530 villages and cities, and killed about 15,000 Palestinians in a series of mass atrocities.

@william_nedley I think the persecution of the jews abroad in the early 20th century leads many today to overlook/lose sight of the displacement, massacres, and cultural cleansing of the Palestinians. This topic also isn't really taught in secondary education either.

#AuburnWorldHistory

[hunter @HDLHISTORY]

To me, the cultural fluidity of early 20th century Jerusalem was really surprising to see, especially when compared to the region today.

I didn't realize Jerusalem was under Ottoman rule until the empire fell during WW1
