Llullaillaco Maiden — A 15 year old girl sacrificed during the Inca Empire for both purposes of religious rite and social control. She was chosen a year prior to her death, fed a ritualistic diet for an approximate twelve months to make her gain weight, then was drugged and left on the shrine at Volcano Llullaillaco, where she was left to die of exposure. For five hundred years, her body had been preserved at 82 ft. She is considered to be the best preserved Andean mummy ever uncovered.

“It’s sad that Disney has the opportunity to educate so many people and yet many of their movies, unintentionally perhaps, serve as a platform to reinforce negative stereotypes about differnet cultural groups,” Jafar lamented, while inwardly wondering whether, perhaps, a certain gold lamp he had heard about could help him solve this problem…

THIS.
ALL. OF. THIS.
THANK YOU for making this post.
you know what i never noticed that!!! oh snap!!
did any arabs do the voices because i know that aladdin was voiced by a white dude
Y’know, I really don’t see reasoning behind pointing stuff like this out. Why can’t people just sit back and enjoy Disney rather than accuse them of doing shit like this?
yeah i mean why bother to accuse racists of racism
that’s almost like accusing sexists of sexism
or criminals of crimes
i mean why would we DO that when we can just ENJOY the erasure and hurt
also the sky is green and water is yellow and clouds are made of cotton candy
Fuckin’ A+ commentary ^

Forever In tears. RIP <3
Meet Jade. She killed herself three days after making this video.. Teenage suicide accounts for 31,000 suicides a year in the U.S, making it the 3rd leading cause of suicide. Worldwide, nearly one million people commit suicide every year.. more than those murdered or killed in war. Think before you say something hurtful to someone else. It may look like they’re okay, but they’re not. Words are more powerful than you think. Repost this not just for Jade, but for every teenager who is going through what she went through. You can help save a life. And wasn’t she just gorgeous?
I WILL FOREVER REBLOG THIS.
she’s fucking beautiful. we will miss you jade <3
This is heartbreakingly sad. Rest in peace, Jade.
I can’t get over how beautiful her smile is in the beginning and how sad she looks later on.
Rest in Peace, beautiful. She didn’t deserve to be treated that way.
I hate it how people can just be mean like this to others? SERIOUSLY! I just wish i knew her and I could of been the biffle that she never had! :( I wish i knew her to tell her not to do this, she would of been my bestie, just by looking at her you can tell shes not what that paper listed shes the opposite of the harsh list!
Just R.I.P, gorgeous R.I.P! Even though I dont know you, I wish I did! ♥
whenever i see this, i will reblog without a doubt. R.I.P Jade, your beautiful<3
Reblogging this every time I see it

Cara Mia Addio: In response to the disturbing wave of pedophile apologists cropping up on the internet lately
“Sorry to bring this up again, but I’ve been stewing and need to say something. You may not want to read this, so skip if you want.
Many pedophiles and child molesters justify what they want to do by hauling out the same lines - children are curious about sex, they should be…

And it’s shit like this that I don’t really think people understand. While you’re supporting the gutting of food stamps, medicaid, and other social programs, you’re legitimately committing people to die.
One of the men I’ve known my entire life passed away this year because he had to choose between care for his heart issues and putting food on the table for his kids.
This isn’t a joke.
UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE, PLEASE?
It is simply disgusting that the US STILL doesn’t have universal health care. Wake up… :|
