@AUforhistorycl1 I agree, it's very disturbing to read about someone so cruel. #AuburnWorldHistory

"Douglas appeared determined to extract as much labor as possible from his enslaved workforce in what turned out to be the final decade of the US version of the peculiar institution." #AuburnWorldHistory

"The future of 150 enslaved men, women, and children hung in the balance. Martin offered his entire estate—filled with black families, their hopes, and dreams, to Stephen A. Douglas—as a wedding gift." #AuburnWorldHistory

"It actually begins on a 3,000-acre cotton plantation in Lawrence County, Mississippi." I never knew the origin of the University of Chicago started here. #AuburnWorldHistory

@AUforhistorycl1 I agree, I think capitalism was originally intended to create an immense amount of power and wealth for a few people, but it also allows freedom. #AuburnWorldHistory

"To me this is what neoliberalism was about: it was that political project, and I think the bourgeoisie or the corporate capitalist class put it into motion bit by bit." #AuburnWorldHistory

[Karley Stewart @KarleyStewart9]

I agree with David Harvey. I think many of these terms are used to incite fear in people so they believe something scary is happening when in reality corporations are gaining more control. #AuburnWorldHistory

"I’ve always treated neoliberalism as a political project carried out by the corporate capitalist class as they felt intensely threatened both politically and economically towards the end of the 1960s into the 1970s." #AuburnWorldHistory

@AUforhistorycl1 I agree. I never knew that there was a bomb stronger than the atomic bomb. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Karley Stewart @KarleyStewart9]

One of the crewmen mentions their emotions on bombing others but emphasizes that people in America are waiting on them and that they have a chance of a promotion. #AuburnWorldHistory

It's hard to understand their dialect due to their nicknames for things, such as the word "rooskies". #AuburnWorldHistory

[Karley Stewart @KarleyStewart9]

You can tell that these pilots are used to dropping bombs based on their conversations with each other. Although they are serious, they still joke around. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Karley Stewart @KarleyStewart9]

@JalilIrvin I agree, it's hard to understand how people can think this way and it is truly disgusting. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Karley Stewart @KarleyStewart9]

I liked the literary structures she used to emphasize the pain and emotion behind her words. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Karley Stewart @KarleyStewart9]

This speech stuck with me because of her powerful language and emotions in her words. I truly cannot imagine what it was like. #AuburnWorldHistory

[Karley Stewart @KarleyStewart9]

It's hard to imagine what African American women went through during this time, and it stuck with me when she talks about seeing her land being taken advantage of. #Auburn

[Karley Stewart @KarleyStewart9]

@bethany_hadley1 I agree, it's also crazy to think that that was happening less than 100 years ago. #AuburnWorldHistory

"For black women, in particular, the 1940s was an era of hope and possibility married by the persistence of racial and gender inequality."

[Karley Stewart @KarleyStewart9]

"This article is the first to utilize the previously understudied newspaper to show how black nationalist women—a subordinate group within the global racial and gender hierarchies—asserted their political agency and demanded equal recognition."

“We want to set the world on fire, we want freedom and justice and a chance to build for ourselves. And if we must set the world on fire . . . we will, like other men, die for the realization of our dreams.”
