Are you under the impression that the girls in the photo burned down the plantation, or are you unaware of the history of such buildings in this nation, what they symbolize, and why the descendants of those brutalized in the shadow of those white pillars might be happy to see it burned down?
Nobody went and burned down the plantation because of its history. (Unless this turns out to be arson, which I would find entirely justifiable.)
The plantation burned down, and some folks are rightly rejoicing in the destruction of a nexus of brutality and harm.
If rich young descendants of nazis were getting married in auschwitz on the regular, I think that wouldn’t sit well with some folks, so I’m certainly not going to shed any tears about all the rich young white women who will have to find a better place to serve as the backdrop of their weddings.
Or is that that you don’t know what “early” means in this context? It would have been even more satisfying if it had waited a couple of weeks to burn down.
Note that I’m not from US so might be missing more context
I mean, if millions of people were killed as part of genocide in that building, I’m sure no one would think of hosting events there, but you’re comparing two vastly different things. The abuse that happened in that building is awful, but stop comparing it to genocide you goofball
EDIT: And no, I never said the girls themselves burned it and then took a selfie of the crime lol. I’m talking about people who do not see the problem with burning down historical places and are expressing their will to do it or support towards it.

Yeah, you clearly lack context and understanding (or maybe just empathy for) the brutality and scope of american slavery, and I’ve tried about as much as I am willing to to help you understand. The fact that it was less, uh, concentrated to specific sites makes it no less horrific, and you seem to have some huge misconceptions regarding its scope. Good day to you.

This was a great film, and might lend some needed perspective.
