The Indians and Negroes exercised power over biodiversity of medicinal plants.
Indian and Negroes slaved couldn´t visit the doctor; thence they sought through the Nature the resources to save them from inevitable diseases and avoid the other ones.
The Indians could not avoid the diseases transmitted by white man, who decimated the Indian mercilessly and attacked the Negroes ferociously. The white men should yield them homage and gratitude, whereas the botanical knowledge existent today came from indigenous and black races.
Men, sooner you shall shake hands, constituting only one terrestrial people, only one nation, only one God.
Hurry up in recognizing the races half-sister for planetary progress.
All we are brothers despite of too much prejudice!
We have only one God Creator despite of prepotency of some people considering only themselves as children of God.
We are only one People despite of dominance of some nations over the little ones. Nowadays I understand: Indians, white people and Negroes, they all are children of only one Planet Earth.
Viva Planet Earth!
