Replying to @j9r2021 Why is it always the Boomers who want to argue with me? 😭 I stated the lucky ones were able to be sold as servants and some actually were able to repay a debt and be free. But the majority didnt. and many sold as servants were never set free either. I also saw your comment insulting my character before it was removed, real classy. 💛 #mexicanhistory #indigenoushistory #maya #yaqui #porfiriodiaz
Replying to @thatguy198614 ANT1FA is more or less a loose network of people who hate fa$cists...Sure their might be random local people who group together & label their little thing as ANTIFA but theres no actual organization. It's a movement and ideology that disagrees with fa$cism...there's no headquarter...or leader to a movement that hates fascism, it just exists as it does. #antifascist #texasleftist #leftiktok

In 2021, President AMLO apologized to the Yaqui, Maya, and other indigenous people for the atrocities committed against them by the state of Mexico. But why? After Mexico gained it's independence, in 1821, Mexico enacted the Treaty of Córdoba, which proclaimed indigenous people within its borders were Mexican citizens. In 1829, President Vicente Guerrero abolished slavery. Despite this, the Mexican slave trade continued and was reinstated as "debt bondage". A debt many would never be able to repay and lost their lives trying to. Under Porfirio Diaz, the economy thrived through mining, exporting cash crops, and business deals with foreign investors who were able to buy large plots of land. Much of this land belonging to indigenous communities that the government wanted out. Many were sold for a few cents, w/ some being shipped to the Carribean. The Yaquis, who were resilient to the control of the Spanish & Mexican government for centuries, were either sold,or unalived, and forced to work the henequen plantations in the Yucatan alongside the Maya, and other indigenous people, or to the sugar plantations & tobacco fields in Oaxaca. Thus opening up their lands for colonial expansion. Families were separated and sold to the owners of these plantations. They worked from before sunrise all the way to sunset with only one meal and a ball of maiz to sustain their energy. They were guarded at night to ensure none could run away and many were beaten & whipped in front of other workers. Many did not survive the journey to these plantations nor the work itself. Those who managed to escape often lost their lives from starvation & dehydration due to the remote locations. Young girls were often sold into s3cks tr@ fficking rings. Women were not allowed to marry men from their tribes. The "lucky ones" were sold to houses, as servants and maids, where their debt was often able to be repaid and were set free. Much of this treatment, along with that of the rural populations, and Diaz's refusal to step down, helped contribute to the start of the Mexican Revolution. #mexicanhistory #nativehistory #casatiktok #nativetiktok #colonization #mexicantiktok #yaqui #maya #oaxaca #yucatan
The red hand over the mouth symbolizes the violence perpetuated on native women, girls, and two spirits. The symbolizes the unheard voices of the missing and the stolen and the deafening silence these victims are given from the media and the law.

#stitch with @change_the_system1 Just a rant to open up discussion! I think our country overall is growing more progressive and it's going against the status quo. Thus the surge of oppressive and regressive legislative actions by old racist men and incels. #poitics #leftisttiktok #millennials #genz #genzmillennial #votersuppression #heritagefoundation
I mean, I have a feeling I know why I just dont think their public reasoning makes sense given how much data is mined from U.S. citizens as is domestically and internationally. I doubt a global implementation of stricter policy will happen though. Companies like Google and Facebook would throw a fit. #tiktokbanned #privatedata #uncensorednews #usbantiktok #leftiktok #usnews #openinformation #censorship #freedomofspeechandinformation
"I grew up poor & struggling, therefore it doesn't exist" is a common argument meant to dismiss such topics. Everyone's struggles are valid and there are many forms of oppression (classism, lgbtq+ discrimination, ableism,etc.). One does not negate the other. Yt privilege is the notion that, given two people are under the same circumstances, a yt person would be better off than a non-white person in the same position. There are less barriers and a little more doors that are willing to open or already are. We can recognize a specific axis of privilege while still recognizing intersectionality. #bipoc #bipoctiktok #racialdisparity #systemicracismisreal #caucasity #ytprivilege
