Anonymous asked: I wanted to repost the story about the little slave girl but couldn't because of the religious jargon in the article. I didn't find it very professional or legitimate, which is a shame because I usually like everything I read from this blog. -Sigh- this does not mean that I will ignore the issue of slavery this holiday season (or in any other season), but I will go find a different article that doesn't say that people are created in "God's image."

Answer:

That was me being hasty. I felt the same way after I read the article fully, and thus deleted it. I totally assumed it was going to talk about how consumerism and slavery were directly connected and not to support Christmas (I personally don’t and I’m not religious). I actually really do not appreciate that they used Christmas as an bait to try and get people to donate to their fund. 

That’s what I get for assuming (I should stop that). I honestly do not want that to be part of my blog :/ and I’m sorry you had to witness it.
