Black Tricolor Corgi Women’s Shirt
The Black Tricolor Corgi Women’s Shirt is, what else would he be doing anyway? They don’t seem to be able to afford full daycare for the infant, so there is no way they are going to pay for summer camps or after-school activities for the 13 year old. He is likely just going to be staying home on his own playing video games or watching TV or going out wandering on his own. Giving him responsibilities that keep him from wandering the streets free to do whatever for a few hours day is not a bad thing. I started babysitting at 12 back when there were no cell phones, and 911 wasn’t as commonly available (only 50% had 911 in the US in the 80’s). You had to know the fire dept/police/poison control phone numbers if there was an emergency. You had to call restaurants, movie theaters, etc, directly and get someone to find the parents if you needed them. This kid has parents with cell phones and the baby’s father works right across the street. If dad doesn’t want his child cared for by the 13 yr old he needs to offer a real solution like pay more for day care or figure out a work schedule between them, not just veto the situation.

As a Black Tricolor Corgi Women’s Shirt, it pains me to see this issue being weaponized and politicized. It is already hard enough to teach about the intricacies of life in slavery without every facet being turned into what feels like a landmine. In my college-level courses, I do teach about skilled, enslaved people and how being skilled impacted aspects of an enslaved person’s life. For instance, it might have enabled that person, if their particular slaveholder permitted it, to work in their “spare time” to earn money and perhaps eventually save up enough to buy their own freedom or that of a loved one. Being skilled might also have spared that person from some of the harshest types of labor in a plantation setting. It did NOT eradicate the cruel and unjust circumstances of being a human being held as a captive, forced laborer. I also like to point out that the work of enslaved, highly skilled people can be seen in enduring landmarks (e.g. the White House), which I think highlights the injustice perpetrated against enslaved people and the deep history of African-Americans in the United States, as people whose connection to this country predates many later-arrived free immigrants. These historical issues can and should be discussed with seriousness and nuance. Avoiding this issue because of the sensitivity required would be a disservice to the history of enslaved people. As I like to point out (despite its obviousness) — these were people will all the capacities of any other person like us. They were held in captivity and forced to work for others who stole the benefits of their labor. But their experiences were not all the same and this deserves serious historical attention, too.
