In 1965, the US government helped the Indonesian military kill approximately one million innocent civilians. This was one of the most important turning points of the 20th century, eliminating the largest communist party outside China and the Soviet Union and inspiring copycat terror programs in faraway countries like Brazil and Chile.

If you’re not pursuing a rewarding career, if you’re not in loving relationships, if you’re not financially secure, if you’re not healthy and vital, if you aren’t fulfilling your purpose and passion—or don’t even know your purpose or passion—then you’re stopping yourself without even knowing it.

Scholars of US and transatlantic slavery have largely ignored or dismissed accusations that Black Americans were cannibalized.
