Domination to Racism

The Middle Passage

A world that reminded shameful torture that no human creature should ever encounter in its beautiful hometown.

Middle passage

It also reminded no-return shipment in the middle passage, a passage during which innumerable African souls lost their very precious lives in the very deep Atlantic Ocean.

During that deadly crossing, not to mention the First World War when the western nation’s power and dignity were jeopardized, oh yes in danger, they needed Africans' help, then they went there and lent a much-appreciated helping hand.

Racism

Racism is now like the cancer of the society. Due to the colors of the skin, people are undergoing racism everywhere in the world, and then the whole world is just like the jungle today, animosities around several nationalities, exploitation and injustice, killing, and destabilization. Always trying to understand why they despise one another, as a result of deep reflection. Different colors seems to have forgotten that they all belong to the one and sole genealogical tree, and are all descendant from Adam and Eve, should love one another in unity, harmony, and fidelity and purify their affection, recognize their universality and work out a universal morality and humanism for the sake of mankind’s peace progress love and happiness and also be common folks and not common foes.

Racial Inequality

African Americans realized they would have to fight for racial equality on all fronts. Racism was even experienced in the suffrage movement when African-American women like Ida B. Wells-Barnett and Alice Dunbar-Nelson supported the need for women’s voting rights. During an organized women’s suffrage march in 1913, the organizers of the National American Woman Suffrage Association asked black women to march separately. Although the 19th amendment was passed to grant the vote to women, it was not until the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s that African-American women could exercise this right without discrimination.
