Daryl Davis is a blues musician, but he also has what some might call an interesting hobby. For the past 30 years, Davis, a black man, has spent time befriending members of the Ku Klux Klan.

He says once the friendship blossoms, the Klansmen realize that their hate may be misguided. Since Davis started talking with these members, he says 200 Klansmen have given up their robes. When that happens, Davis collects the robes and keeps them in his home as a reminder of the dent he has made in racism by simply sitting down and having dinner with people.

Daryl Davis es un músico de blues, pero también tiene lo que algunos podrían llamar un hobby interesante. Durante los últimos 30 años, Davis, un hombre negro, se ha hecho amigo de miembros del Ku Klux Klan.

Dice que una vez que florece la amistad, los miembros del Klan se dan cuenta de que su odio puede estar equivocado. Desde que Davis comenzó a hablar con estos miembros, dice que 200 miembros del Klan han renunciado a sus túnicas. Cuando eso sucede, Davis recoge las túnicas y las guarda en su casa como recordatorio de el hueco que ha hecho en el racismo simplemente por sentarse a cenar con la gente.

Follow @fitbypeace You can motivate by fear, and you can motivate by reward. But both those methods are only temporary. The only lasting thing is self- motivation. #knowledgeofselfisanationality #factsmatter #knowledge #knowthyself #knowledgeisfree #knowledgesociety #strongmindset #intrestingfacts #positivemindset #didyouknow #facts💯 #funfacts #amazingfacts #mindsetshift #knowledgebomb #lifehacks #mindsetcreator #mindsetiseverything #coachlife #factsonfacts #mindsetofachampion #factsaboutme #successprinciples #mastermind #successcoach #growthmindset #napoleonhill #success #achievegreatness (at Mercedes Benz Stadium) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cfjg7nULtmm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

sigh~~

religion is accepted as knowledge and not belief

knowledge is power>>> accept everything as knowledge>>> be knowledge

knowledge as a concept>>>real

knowledge as belief/way of life>>>fake

religion is knowledge on how some may/want to live the human experience ~~~

accept everything as knowledge and growth is endless

if you understand you understand

Caesarean section was considered a life-threatening procedure in England that was only to be undertaken in the direst of circumstances and facing the decision on whether to save the life of the mother or baby.

The first successful C-section done in Africa ("success" defined as both surviving) is usually credited to Irish surgeon James Barry (Margaret Ann Bulkley), who performed the operation in Cape Town, South Africa.

This may well not be true due to the quality of surgical techniques in present-day Uganda. Ugandans performed non-fatal C-sections without anesthesia but with supply of banana wine as discovered by a missionary.

In 1879, medical missionary Robert Felkin was visiting indigenous people in the Kingdom of Bunyoro. He later published his observations of obstetric care, which included an account of a C-section that he was permitted to witness.

He had a chance to observe a Caesarian section being performed on a young woman. He observed that in Uganda, C-sections were performed with the intention of saving both the mother and the baby, unlike in Europe where maternal mortality was high.

In the Ugandan c-section, there were three men; one was holding a knife, the other was holding unto the ankles of the young woman and the third stood above her abdomen, supporting either sides with his hands in the course of the surgical procedure.

The surgeon who wielded the knife foremost washed his hands, surgical instruments and the abdomen of the young woman with banana wine for sterilization purposes.

She was given some banana wine to drink in order to make her less sensitive to the surgeon's blades.

The surgeon started the C-section by reciting an incantation.

After the ceremonial prayer, he proceeded with the operation.

In Europe, the concept of surgeons sterilizing their hands before the c-section was very new, and only just starting to catch on. Ultimately, it prevented a lot of deaths once they started doing it.

The Ugandans had mastered the procedure long before there was any interaction with Europeans, as well as with explorers, missionaries and plunderers from other parts of the world, who came to steal and enslave.

•••

Los británicos consideraban que las cesáreas eran procedimientos que ponían en riesgo la vida y que solo tenían que ser realizadas en las peores de las circunstancias y enfrentándose a la decisión de salvar a la madre o al bebé.

La primera cesárea exitosa fue realizada en África (“exitosa” debido a que ambos sobrevivieron) y usualmente se le acredita al cirujano irlandés James Barry (Margaret Ann Bulkley), quién realizó la operación en Ciudad del Cabo, Sudáfrica.

Esto puede que no sea cierto debido a la calidad de las técnicas quirúrgicas de la Uganda actual. Los ugandeses realizaban cesáreas no fatales sin anestesia pero administrando vino hecho de bananas, como fue descubierto por un misionero.

En 1879, un misionero médico llamado Robert Felkin, andaba visitando a la población indígena del Reino de Bunyoro. Luego de eso, público sus observaciones en cuanto a los cuidados obstétricos y esto incluía los acontecimientos de una cesárea que le habían permitido presenciar.

Él tuvo la oportunidad de observar cómo se practicaba una cesárea en una mujer joven. Observó que en Uganda, las cesáreas eran realizadas con la intención de salvar a ambos, madre y bebé, a diferencia de Europa dónde la tasa de mortalidad materna era alta.

En la cesárea ugandesa, habían tres hombres: uno sosteniendo la cuchilla, el otro sosteniendo los tobillos de la mujer y el otro se paraba cerca del abdomen para brindar soporte con los manos hacia cualquiera de los dos lados, durante el curso del procedimiento quirúrgico.

El cirujano que portaba la cuchilla lavaba tanto sus manos, como los instrumentos quirúrgicos y el abdomen de la mujer con vino de banana por propósitos de esterilización.

Se le daba de beber algo de vino hecho de bananas para hacerla menos sensible a las cuchillas del cirujano.

El cirujano comenzaba la cesárea recitando un conjuro.

Después del rezo ceremonial, procedía a realizar la operación.

En Europa, el concepto de que los cirujanos se esterilizaran las manos antes de una cesárea era algo demasiado nuevo y venían dándose cuenta. Al final, una vez que comenzaron a hacerlo, se evitaron muchas muertes.

Los ugandeses habían dominado el procedimiento mucho antes de que tuvieran algún tipo de interacción con los Europeos, así como también con los exploradores, misioneros y saqueadores de otras partes del mundo, quienes llegaron a robar y esclavizar.

BLACK LIVES MATTER

I would first like to sincerely apologize for my silence. I’ve been struggling with what to say and I did not want to overstep in anyway. The truth is that I am white and I will never, ever understand what it is like to be discriminated against because of the color of my skin. I wanted to leave the airways open for other voices but I’ve realized that my silence makes me complicit. My job as an ally is not to speak but to listen and to amplify the voices of others. I’m showing up on the front lines with a purpose but I’m following the lead of my black brothers and sisters. All of that to say, BLACK LIVES MATTER. you matter and I love you. Please call me out on my bullshit because I am here to help YOU. I want to do my very best to be educated and to use my privilege to other’s advantage. I will never understand, but I do intend to stand.
