Reviews
it's propaganda against black successes
Matthew ferrari
so it seems that black people, after slavery was ended, were college educated in the sciences but not educated in domestic labor, much like today's upper classes. the theme is a sophisticated propaganda intended to reduce blacks to menial labor when they had educations which could have instantly put them into the superior position in industry and the sciences after the reconstruction. the Tuskegee institute is disgusting.
