Childhood Stress Leaves Genetic Scars
Traumatic experiences in early life can leave emotional scars. But a new study suggests that violence in childhood may leave a genetic mark as well. Researchers have found that children who are physically abused and bullied tend to have shorter telomeres—structures at the tips of chromosomes whose shrinkage has been linked to aging and disease.
“Children who experience physical violence appear to be aging at a faster rate,” says neuroscientist and co-author Avshalom Caspi. As a result, he says, they may face increased risk of disease in adulthood and possibly shortened lifespan.
The more we research and understand stress, the more we learn about its complex nature and implications on our health, both mentally and physically. Expect a lot more of this research in the near future.
super interesting

Anonymous asked: Did you also know Natives could not own land until 1978 (34 years ago)?
What the fucking fuck, US?
I thought individual allotments were given in 1887, meaning certain Natives had the right to sell the land or keep it in their family, effectively owning it. I know one reason the US did this was because it meant white settlers would have more potential places to live, if a Native sold it to them, which is kind of jank. It was a way of taking away property without outright doing it.
Is there more to this? Why did they wait so damn long?
I just learned that Native Americans as a group weren’t given citizenship until 1924. The US only did this so that they would HAVE MORE PEOPLE TO DRAFT FOR WAR.
Wtf.
