On the "disappeared" in this country

And have we not "disappeared" people since the first time white people stepped onto this land?

And when it became unseemly and anti-democracy to blatantly 'disappear' people, we set up institutions to funnel certain folks into 'disappearing' on reservations, into ghettos, trafficked onto highways of serial rapists, and our readily embraced: prisons.

Only now the "disappeared" are back to being blatantly televised, interneted, tiktoked - so those mind-dead & heart-void folks can no longer smile & keep up their daily drudgery plodding toward the amerikkka nitemare.
