The suddenly politicizing of the Epstein Data dump discussing atrocities of children, women, espionage of the supposed cabal is polluting general conversations during a very precarious time of 2026 world war energy. With mainstream and social media working overtime to keep the acts of these various levels of “alleged” abuse by politicians and the wealthy peak discussion, America as a whole needs to understand this not shocking or new for Black people.
If you really listen to the accusations implicating the famous, it unfortunately aligns with many generational stories of Black family trauma from America Chattel-era slavery to Jim Crow economic terrorism. For stories of families victims of modern trauma, learning of female family members drugged and sold into prostitution for many Black inner cities residents, “Brenda had a baby,” and at least four generations of assault/trafficking on American soil dating back to 1700’s.
Right now, the online click-bait conspiracy theorist, election seasonal agitators, and bitter business rivals are having a ball using the rhetoric of Epstein to character assassinate for simple monetization and political points. But, many of the accusations when describing the financial implications of corporations, entertainment industries, and media cover-ups raise troubling questions and detail patterns many have seen before Epstein was even born. It was called Slavery.
For anyone even mentioned in the files, it starts to feel like a way to apply all stated violent acts to a dead man, even to the point of Jeffery Epstein becoming sorta of a proverbial wandering goat, absorbing everyone else’s current and past sins. But many who are outraged seem to be the same ones who feel identity politics or DEI-based narratives should “move on” and simply not discuss past “Epstein’s” when talking about America’s slavery history.
For those insecure about that exploited past, they have to be ready to have the full conversations of human trafficking practices of America’s “nouveau riche” that became windfalls for the JP Morgan’s and other Gilded Aged corporations idolized today. If you really care, you gotta to confront the root cause and systemic benefactors methods.
The scary discussion of Chinese America brothels, Irish Cabbage Patch harvesting, before we even past the 1930’s, only to get into Chattel era slavery of Black breeding programs, and sex trafficking of young Native American kids, if the details arising from this case bother you, you don’t really know American history (and its baseline growth).
Even with religion beat over everyone’s head about ethics, this has been blueprint for colonization by the wicked. And there wasn’t social media during those times, but revisionist history has been used to gaslight American citizens or erase implication of long invested corporations still today. So maybe its Ancestral that all of this coming out now.
Understand, before people become emotionally overwhelmed and shame every corner of America, understand this what Slavery, Jim Crow, Prostitution, and even the rest of the America’s Non Black exploitation was subjected to and experienced over the last 250 + years. But we have to celebrate how far this country’s ideology has come to at least agree it happened and be on the same page to admit it is wrong. Maybe we can look back further and apply restitution for those past ilks without race skepticism and denial.
To discuss Epstein and understand “why” will require some deep diving by those who get triggered by Black history and involve the mindset of America’s mental state during slavery or beyond. A mindset that places humans in shipping containers of corporations, and evolve into the Weinstein’s and R Kelly’s bottom line.
Its not just one type of villain so be careful in assuming slavery equally means Black. The history of Black American slavery is something that can’t be denied but it is woefully edited to protect modern day narratives. So it is America’s baseline for cruelty but also its social evolution of human rights and how modern human capital is defined.
In the same way we see a deflection of behavior with Epstein’s participants today, it could be any one gaining from the exploitative violations using politics, tribalism, and other dehumanizing habits of the unprotected that at this point need to die out like the dinosaur. If you didn’t want to talk about Slavery, then Epstein shouldn’t be forced down Black America’s throat while cold weather and community infrastructure is crumbling.
