Three Young White Men & a Black Woman (aka Rape of the Negro Girl)…  - Christiaen van Couwenbergh, 1632, Oil on canvas, 104 x 127 cm

Musée des Beaux-Arts, Strasbourg

In this painting the history painter Van Couwenbergh illustrated an episode from an unidentified story. A white man sits at the foot of a bed holding a black woman on his lap. Both are naked.íThe woman looks frightened and is putting up a violent struggle. The man casts an amused glance at his companion on the left, who is naked but for a loincloth which he holds in place with one hand. He points at the woman and grins in our direction , as if sharing a joke with us. A third young man lifts his hands to the sky in surprise or dismay. He is a minor character, possibly a servant, and the only person who is fully dressed. A chamberpot stands on a triangular stool beside the bed.

Hmmm – every time I see this painting I cringe and get nauseous as it always make me think of what Our ancestors dealt with during slavery (throughout history) – BUT, the thing is is that this painting is from Europe in the 1600′s. It is a very important seventeenth century “historical allegorical” European painting that is so on point in its depiction of the MONSTER BLACK woman and the pure, handsome and aristocratic white man. What really gets me is that they see themselves as “pure” and us as animals, monsters, non-human, filthy, etc. – BUT, they have continuously sexually desired, assaulted and RAPED us to “feel good” (get a nut). Just THINK–why would someone who thinks himself “pure”/”clean” co-mingle themselves sexually with someone they thought less than, a monster, sub-human, filthy – talk about “PATHOLOGICAL!!!!“  And, the White-Boy got the nerve to call us sub-human amongst other dehumanizing names/things… smdh

A tidbit of WHITE-history they don’t want you to know is is the pervasive trend of white men RAPING their female relatives especially daughters and wives in early European history. Sigmund Freud discovered childhood sex abuse/RAPE in his early research of women. However, he was forced to change his findings to “hysteria” as he was seeking financial support from men in the aristocracy – the Rapist themselves… LOL – the sick pathologies of history they don’t want you to know…
