(70,092 posts)Over the past 100 years there has been a great increase in global health and wellbeing. A lot of this is due to vaccines. And medical research. And humanitarian public health efforts.
As a result, many Black and brown people across the world are doing ok. Their standard of living is better. They send their children to schools and those children become doctors and engineers and scientists and business people. A global middle class is rising up all over the world.
The world's wealth and privilege is no longer exclusively in the hands of white elites in Europe and America.
And that is freaking out some of the white elites.
It's no accident that the billionaires who put Trump in power immediately went after vaccines, medical research, and USAID.
