Centering Western perspectives of "true" history by calling our Indigenous histories "prehistory" & insinuating we are only modern due to colonization are two of many ways we are gaslit into assimilation and conformity.

Day one of Obama's term, the GOP was facing the same odds and declared unanimously and unambiguously that they would not help him a lick and anyone who didn't like it could eat shit. It largely worked, and they left the literal playbook for the Dems - who have instantly surrendered.
"What leverage do we have?" says Democratic House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. "They control the House, the Senate and the presidency; it's their government."
