Ota Benga was born around 1883, in what is now the Republic of Congo. Theirs was a hunter-gatherer society.

When he became a man, his teeth were chipped into sharp points, part of his tribal customs. His world came crashing down when King Leopold II of Belgium (The butcher of Congo) established a colony in the Congo to exploit its valuable resources.

The demand for rubber was increasing around the world and Leopold wanted to corner the market. He subdued the native population to force them into laboring on the rubber plantations.

In Belgium Congo, women were held hostage until their men returned with enough rubber for the colonizer King Leopold. Some had their hands chopped off for not meeting rubber quotas.

Ota was out on a hunting expedition when his village was attacked by the slavers. Whether they were Force Publique or an African group working to collect people to sell to them varies from story to story. He was taken captive.

On the other side of the globe, a man named Samuel Verner was preparing exhibits for the 1904 World's Fair. The fair's organizers wanted to do an exhibit showing the progress of mankind “from the dark prime to the highest enlightenment, from savagery to civic organisation"

He was given a hefty budget to collect living "specimens" of people from Africa to represent the "savage depths" from which mankind had sprung.

The experience of young African men at the 'fair' aka Human Zoo, was not a pleasant one. Billed as cannibals, they shook spears at the crowd and grimaced with their filed teeth, modeling their "war dances"

Verner sent Ota to the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. In 1906, Verner found a new home for Ota: The Bronx Zoo.

Ota was put as an "exhibit" A plaque was erected, describing him in the same way an animal would be described and put into a cage in the monkey house. The Minneapolis Journal declared Ota to be the "missing link" between chimps and humans. On March 19, 1916, he stole a revolver gun and shot himself through the heart.

Invent free electricity, go to jail, get poisoned, and get a target on your back.

A white woman's tears 😭 is the most effective and deadliest weapon ever invented.

This is a sample of a 10 hour window in Baltimore last night! There are 10 pages of reports on the citizen app. This may sound like paranoid hyperbole, but I'm telling you it's not! In a city of 543,000 people [and shrinking], the mayhem & violence is unchecked. The city is 600 police officers short in manpower, and what's really fucked up about the carnage, it's all BLACK ON BLACK CRIME!😡 These stupid mofos are asking to be locked down under martial law if this doesn't calm down.
