I wasn't acquainted with this story. Thanks for sharing.

During the slave trade era blacks were put on display for how different they looked. There’s the story Ota Benga, a mbuti (congo pygmy) who was put in a cage with a monkey for display at the Bronx zoo in 1906. Ten years later, he committed suicide as a result of depression.

Why it isn’t cool to touch your Black colleague's hair.
