On this day in 1916, Ota Benga, an African native who suffered inhumane treatment by being kept in a zoo, committed suicide.
He had been kidnapped in 1904 from Congo, and taken to America and exhibited at the Bronx Zoo with monkeys.
A THREAD!
People are always calling me an old lady in a young persons body lmao. I’m sorry i don’t be outside all the time and like to bake and cook and plant and watch black soaps 🤣🥲
Y’all deserve to be set free from believing that your 30s are anything BUT the beginning of when you start to feel like you understand life more..and yourself more. Your 30s is nowhere near the deadline for your life goals, it’s definitely closer to the beginning.
