what actually happened: some Wampanoag leader: “well fuck, i guess we can’t let them starve, let’s go give them some of our reserves” how the story is told: “the LORD acting THROUGH the Wampanoag brought the blessings of the bounty of the harvest, saving the Pilgrims”

and this is a prime example of how God is used to perpetuate white supremacy. any acts of kindness by “savages” and “heathens” get attributed as a celestial intervention, as if they couldn’t act with kindness on their own. |
