I think the greatest irony of my life is when the cafeteria at my college changed all the lights to blue bulbs for âautism awarenessâ, which fucked with my sensory issues badly enough that I could barely stand to be in the building
I was certainly aware of my autism, at least.

âKnowing that they were losing âvaluable productâ due to their slavesâ propensity to swim, slave owners began taking drastic steps to protect their property. One of these steps was to instill a fear of the water by dunking disobedient slaves in water until they nearly drowned and by creating fear through stories of creatures living in the water. Thus it didnât take long to excise or destroy the West African swimming tradition from African- American culture. The Jim Crow laws that were enacted after The Civil War prohibited blacks from the popular seaside resorts in places like Atlantic City, N.J. and Revere Beach, Mass. And by the 20th Century, as the swimming pool began to gain in popularity in the United States, the color line prohibited blacks from enjoying this pleasant recreational skill.
In addition, self-segregation also played a role in limiting those of African ancestry from getting in the water. I remember my Aunt saying to stay away from the pool because, âblack folk donât swim.ââ
Such a long and consistent history of anti-Blackness and swimming. Long before police openly assaulted little black girls in McKinney, GoodWhitePeople⢠were enforcing White Supremacy and segregating swimming pools.
Motel manager, James âJimmyâ Brock, pouring acid into a swimming pool to drive black people away from a âSwim Inâ protest, in St. Augustine, Florida on June 18, 1964.
Next time you hear someone ask questions like, âWhy donât black people swim?â Or âWhy are so many black people afraid of dogs?â And, âWhy are there do so many black people live in poverty?ââŚ..let âem know that those arenât coincidences. These things didnât just happen naturally, all on their own. Thereâs a reason for it, and you donât have to be an historian to know theyâre all interconnected through slavery, endemic racism and persistently racist cultural norms.
always reblogâŚ

Quite an experience to live in fear, isnât it? Thatâs what it is to be a slave.
