Still I Rise

  For this moment, I believe this is an appropriate word. My apologies for my inconsistencies and inactivity, I have been keeping my equilibrium through these challenges. I know to everything there is a season, and at this present time is a season of tough endurance along with the recovery of surgery.  Some seasons we faced in life are great and some seasons are tough. If you are in a great season, it's only going to get greater. And if you are in a tough season, be of good cheer, it shall be well.

Drapetomania What is drapetomania, it is a term that was originated and hypothesized in 1851 by a man named Samuel Cartwright who was a medical doctor that practiced medicine in the South? He came up with this racial theory when an African slave would runaway, Cartwright considered that the slaves had a disease, a mental illness when one wanted to flee. Think about this because an African slave wanted to escape from being beaten, dehumanize, raped, and who wanted to escape captivity. They were literally diagnosed.   Below is some interesting information about Drapetomania: Southern doctors used pseudo-science to explain why slaves tried to escape while ignoring the fact that maybe they just didn't like being slaves. It’s easy to forget that up until very recently, slavery was a normal and accepted way of life. Since the beginning of recorded history, some humans have enslaved others, and people accepted it as the way of the world. It is boggling to the modern Western mind to t...
