In the early 20th century, a country took thousands of Filipinos from their homes and placed them in a human zoo in Coney Island, New York, for their entertainment. This is a disturbing historical fact that cannot be learned anywhere else.
In those days, the Human Zoo was a product of popular culture and at the same time a symbol of racism and prejudice. These Filipinos are considered "alien" and exist to satisfy the curiosity and entertainment needs of a certain country.
In addition to human zoos, some Native Americans even buried people by the neck, exposing them to nature as a death sentence. They also put ants around the person and let the ants eat the person alive. Such cruel acts are disrespectful and wanton deprivation of life.
In the past, women's lives were often threatened. Due to the social concept and clothing design of the time, wearing multiple layers of flammable skirts made it impossible for them to take off their skirts in a short period of time. In the 60s of the 19th century, the British Medical Journal estimated that 3,000 women died in fires every year. This statistic is shocking and a reminder of safety in our daily lives.
The attitude of ancient Greek society towards babies is also thought-provoking. At the time, it was believed that most babies would die before the seventh day, so ancient Greek society performed a naming ceremony, which usually took place around the tenth day after the birth of the baby, when the father would decide whether the baby would survive or not. This concept reflected the backwardness of medical conditions and the disregard for life at that time.
In Britain in 1939, more than 750,000 pets were killed in response to food shortages. This is a shocking figure and reflects the neglect of animal welfare at the time.
