Reply to This:

Slave tetris is a game you can find on the app store that portrays slaves as steryotypical slaves. They all have the same skin tone and are all males. It is a game of tetris, but with these slaves shoevd in different box shapes and put into a big ship supposedly in order to show what slavery looked like on slave boats. However, I find this to be a tool that promotes racism because it innacurately shows how the slaves were treated, what they looked like, and what they went through. It also is not very approppriate to young children who don’t even understand the purpose of the game and why it is the way it is. The game is also insulting to the ancestors of people living today who went through real life slave ships. They don’t deserve to be portrayed like this and would be insulted. The game is very racist and should be taken down.
