Mina Harker née Murray

𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐚 𝐇𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐫

23 Years Old 5'6" Feet tall Infected (Partial Higher Vampire) 1887 Status: Alive | 1999 Status: Deceased (1864-1993) Mina Harker, a victim of Dracula, was transformed into a partial Higher vampire after he attempted to turn her but was thwarted. Left in this state of being that straddles the line between human and monster, she is unfortunately unable to rid herself of the infection and is stuck as creature that hungers for blood. Often craves blood, but refuses to drink it out of a sense of moral disgust, yet gets nauseous when presented with normal food because of said cravings.

Cause of Death: Mina Harker passed away in child birth on November 7th, 1893. Her soon to be child, Quincey Harker, was still born-- suffering from a genetic condition that was incompatible with life. Those who are infected are not meant to live long in this half state of being and and their cells soon begin to die from the venom in their veins.

Relationships

Jonathan Harker | Husband | ♥♥♥♥♥ A deeply passionate and loving relationship, they would do anything for each other. Met young, fell hard and fast. Does not wish to trouble Jonathan with her status and refuses to drink his blood when offered.

Abraham Van Helsing | Close Acquaintance | ♥♥♥♡♡ Though she not claim he is a friend, she trusts him enough to put her life in his hands. He can be seen as a grandfather figure of sorts, someone who she can go to for help. She understands that he was trying his best to keep her safe. Arthur Holmwood | Acquaintance | ♥♥♥♡♡ Someone she is thankful towards, yet can't claim to be friends. Grateful that he helped save her life. Dr. John Seward | Acquaintance | ♥♥♥♡♡ Someone she is thankful towards, yet can't claim to be friends. Grateful that he helped save her life. Dracula | Sympathetic | ♥♡♡♡♡ In spite of what he has done, she does not hate him, and only feels a strange sense of sympathy and pity mixed with horror. Still mentally linked to Dracula as one of his "Fledglings" and can sense general things about his location/emotions/ect.

The Thibodaux Massacre took place in Thibodaux, Louisiana on November 23, 1887. Black sugar cane workers, determined to unionize for a living wage, chose to combine their minimal power during the crucial harvest season. Their actions sparked a massacre.

The cane workers protested the harsh working conditions, long hours, and starvation wages. They were fed subsistence meals and paid as little as 42 cents a day with scrip which could only be used in plantation stores.

The Knights of Labor encouraged the sugar cutters to demand better treatment and $1.25 a day in cash. They tried unsuccessfully to organize the workers in 1874, 1880, and 1883. In 1887, they waited until the rolling season was almost underway to propose making a stand. The planters were unable to attract enough strikebreakers from out of the area because of the low pay they offered. Junius Bailey, a schoolteacher and the president of the Terrebonne chapter of the Knights of Labor went to the growers with the sugar cutter’s demands.

The growers refused to negotiate and fired the union members on November 22, the strike was called and for the next three weeks, an estimated 10,000 workers went on strike.

White vigilantes locked down Thibodaux and went door to door attempting to identify strikers and demanding passes from any Blacks going in and out of town. As morning broke on November 23 two white guards were injured, and the massacre began.

The planters persuaded Governor Samuel D. McEnery, a Democrat and former sugar planter, to unleash several units of the all-white state militia. The militia brought a .45 caliber Gatling gun while the paramilitary groups set up outside of the Thibodaux courthouse. Both the militia and white vigilantes went door to door shooting suspected strikers and those unlucky enough to cross their path.

The indiscriminate killing left approximately 60 people dead. The bodies of many of the strikers were dumped in unmarked graves. Those who survived hid in the woods and swamps as the killings spread to other plantations. It was one of the deadliest episodes in US labor history. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence

The Thibodaux Massacre

The Thibodaux Massacre was nothing less than an act of violent racism that ended the lives of up to 60 African Americans.

"On November 23, 1887, a mass shooting of African-American farm workers in Louisiana left some 60 dead. Bodies were dumped in unmarked graves while the white press cheered a victory against a fledgling black union."

This information taken from the Smithsonian Magazine highlights the extremity of the situation as a whole.

Picture taken from the Nicholls library database.

"Murder, foul murder has been committed, and the victims were inoffensive, law-abiding Negroes. Assassins more cruel, more desperate, more desperate than any who had hitherto practiced their nefarious business in Louisiana have been shooting down, like so many cattle, the negroes in and around Thibodaux, Lafourche parish, La."

Quote taken from African American Newspaper.

This was a tragic part of history, and it should be learned about, a way to bring awareness to the horrible situation that African Americans used to live in. The massacre was a result of a labor strike blown out of proportion by the white officials in charge. It should never be forgotten that innocent people were killed that day as a result of wanton racism and power hungry officials.
