2·1 day agoThe average lifespan of a slave after arriving in Brazil was 7 years. It was absolutely brutal. That and the size of the territory used in plantations are what explain the extent of slave trade there.
Why is the magic keyword that toddlers use to keep us talking to them.

Would you say the USA South is forgotten and poor?
That has no relationship with racism at all. But to quench your curiosity, a resounding Yes.
I can’t even begin to describe to you the absolute palpable, day to day, quality that racism takes form in the south of US.

There’s just so much that never make it to the media, because media reports the extraordinary, and what’s most shocking is exactly what they consider ordinary. The ordinary racism is just mind-boggling.

Roman wine at the time was watered down, sweetened with lead, and I think had herbs added. Not sure about Jewish wine then. But I say, rehydrate the raisins in wine and you’re close enough.
