By Swanson’s estimates, 1-in-17 Native Hawaiians had died within two years of Cook’s arrival. By 1800, the population had declined by 48% since Cook set foot on Hawaii. By 1820, it had declined 71%; by 1840, it declined 84%.
no, indigenous people. the ones who were “actually colonized” like you said.
and no you said it’s “always a white American man” implying you follow spaces where similar voices reign and i’m letting you know that’s a uniquely you experience that doesn’t have to stay that way.
talk about bad faith, must be exhausting to be like that.
95% of hawaiians were murdered by white people?
You mean this community we both follow?
95% might be high but close. Maybe 85% is more accurate?
Cook and his men also brought syphilis and mosquitoes so fuck those dudes right in the ear.
