not pristine new world



Iroquois practiced a form of slavery, but it was distinct from the chattel slavery associated with Europeans. Among the Iroquois, slavery primarily involved war captives who were taken during raids. These captives were often subjected to a process of "social death," where they were stripped of their previous identity and clan ties. However, they could be integrated into Iroquois society, sometimes even becoming full members of the community over time. This practice was driven by the need to replenish populations that had been diminished by warfare and disease.

The fate of captives varied: some were executed, while others were adopted into families as replacements for lost relatives. Women and children were more likely to be incorporated into Iroquois society, while male warriors were often killed. The Iroquois viewed this system as a way to sustain their communities rather than as an economic enterprise, which contrasts with the European model of slavery that focused on labor and profit.

pettiness


"My advice, for what it’s worth: try not to be distracted by the faintly discourteous, the mildly incompetent, the harmlessly obnoxious. Roll with the delayed trains, dropped litter and misused apostrophes. Save your powder for the truly malevolent creatures now stalking the land."
- Hugh Laurie

nil desperandum



“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
― Frank Herbert, Dune
