Object to erasing OUR history? Statues and Honor? - Above That Posted: Aug 20th, 2017 - 9:49 am
J. Marion Sims was a gynecologist in the 1800s who purchased Black women slaves and used them as guinea pigs for his untested surgical experiments. He repeatedly performed genital surgery on Black women WITHOUT ANESTHESIA because according to him, "Black women don't feel pain.” Despite his inhumane tests on Black women, Sims was named “the father of modern gynecology”, and his statue currently stands right outside of the New York Academy of Medicine. #FightSupremacy
It has become OUR duty, for whatever reason, this moment in OUR history to recognize and rectify the errors of our ways. We MUST stop honoring these blatantly racist acts. Yes, these actions occurred, but NO, we no longer need statues to these actors. The racism is in the fact that the people who knew how they came by their "positive" result (dubious for many with Robert E. Lee, but locally positive?, which is where statues are located), felt they could ignore the treatment of blacks, as they were inconsequdntial, subhuman, owned, animals----THERE IS THE RACISM.
We NOW are speaking against that racism. We no longer will tolerate honoring those with that past.
I understand that this comes dangerously close to questioning honoring a number of people in our lives, and no one is suggesting we burn down Monticello and replace with a plaque. No one is suggesting we re-write the history books ( as Stalin was known to do). We want the ACTUAL history to be reported. If it makes people uncomfortable, so be it.
