One of the brutal instruments used during slavery was the iron neck collar fitted with a fork or spikes.
It was placed around enslaved people's necks, with metal prongs positioned near the chin and chest.
Any attempt to lower or turn the head could cause the spikes to dig into the skin.
Enslaved people were forced to wear these devices as punishment, humiliation and a means of control.
Some collars were designed to make running, bending down or escaping extremely difficult.
This was not discipline.
It was torture — a system built on stripping human beings of their freedom, dignity and humanity.
Never let anyone rewrite the history of slavery.
I would rather have the worst breathiest most dramatized ‘anime voice’ voice acting of all time than have to see another silent Pokémon cutscene animated with accurate lip flaps
people will say stupid shit like this and then get mad when black people cosplay asian characters. jacinthe is black, painting your skin dark brown to cosplay her when you are not that skin tone originally is racist.
this is sexual harassment and many straight women are like that. queer women are just easily exploitable bodies to them they can use and abuse in because they have power over us. we're subhuman to them. im sorry this happened to you:(
