Both conditions apply, was the intent. Teeth from slaves that were also purchased. My wording was unclear, sorry.

It was so unclear, it seems that I am white washing racist now.

Me too, when I called out their childish behavior.

And that's OK! Some people just need to blame everyone else for everything that is fucked up in their own lives. I don't support that, but it is what it is.

I don't mean to imply you are racist at all. Whatever it turns out the provenance of those teeth are has no bearing on whether or not you are racist.

I was referencing another thread in this post, so it's not you. Sorry to give the wrong impression.
