Despite this being a sentiment from 1937 this is still a very real battle against women and children. One demonstration of this battle that has stuck with me is the fashion exhibit "What Were You Wearing?" This exhibit consists of outfits that were worn by SA survivors when they were attacked. Many of the exhibitions are children's clothing and some are just diapers. The sex criminal is still a terrifying threat but has only been taken less seriously by men.

Does the white fear of violent slave uprisings contribute to inherent subconscious prejudice towards black people?

I believe this blase attitude towards major stories has worsened with the age of social media. Many people have forgotten, or worse, were never aware, that Russia and Ukraine are at war, and the same for Israel and Palestine now that the genocide has been ongoing for over a year. Social media has simultaneously made people more nosey and forgetful. Social media users go from one outrageous story to another with no real empathy or care for those involved, only interested in the drama they provide. Overstimulation has dulled people's sense of reality and empathy.

I think Ellis' ideology regarding a link between racial questions and the question of "sex" is largely a problem with interracial romantic and sexual relationships, and perhaps the morality of sex for pleasure rather than only procreation. Interracial relationships are often scrutinized under the idea of a black man being sexually violent towards a white women, therefore creating prejudice against any variation of interracial coupling. Protesting sex for pleasure is often connected with conservative ideologies that control women's bodies under a "pro-life" facade. This protest attempts to create an option of have more children or remain abstinent, however this is an unrealistic expectation and leads to the deaths of many women who received unsafe abortions.

The United States classifying bodies as "black," "white," "heterosexual," or "homosexual" is a tactic to create a social other and control bodies. Similarly this is seen when classifying bodies as "male" and "female" and the control the government instills over feminine reproductive rights.

Has sexuality become seen as a social construct in the same way gender is because it is being classified as an "invention"? Could it therefore be argued that certain societies with different conventions have no, less, or more sexualities and genders than modern society?
