Happy Black History Month - Tumblr Posts
Just wanted to say this for all my non marginalized friends.
Part of the issues that I see from ppl outside of a marginalized community is that those who aren’t apart of a specific community assume things.
STOP ASSUMING THINGS!!!!!
In my opinion, if you have a genuine curiosity and want to learn, ask me questions!!! I’ll try and answer to the best of my ability.
Even though February started two days ago, I only had this idea today. So here you go. :)
With vanilla extract being a meme, I wanted to share some black history of Edmond Albius a black slave who revolutionized vanilla pollination.
He used a technique he learned of pollinating melons to polinate the orchids to create the vanilla beans. Vanilla was rare and a luxury mainly due to only being able to be pollinated by its natural pollinator in Mexico.
unfortanely, he didnt receive any money for his discovery despite being called the main man who revolutionized pollination, he died in poverty...
everyone say thank you Edmond
December 15 2019 - The UFC’s biggest MAGA piece of shit (other than president Dana White) Colby Covington just had a title fight against Nigerian immigrant champion Kamaru Usman. During the fight Colby got his jaw broken, got knocked out in the last round and then proceeded to literally run away during the champ’s victory announcement. [video]/[video]/[video]
