Look close. Theme: Reproduction on this 'Earth'. Seen? Nigger Profanziation (the era of time in which we currently li.fe) as the descendant of Nigger Colonization/Profanization, as the grand descendant of Nigger Slavery (comprising the Epoch of "Ma'afa"), as the great great descendant of a deeper, older idea:
(Wikipedia:) Margaret Garner (called Peggy) was an enslaved African-American woman in pre-Civil War America who was notorious – or celebrated – for killing her own daughter rather than allowing the child to be returned to slavery. She and her family had escaped in January 1856 across the frozen Ohio River to Cincinnati, but they were apprehended by U. S. Marshals acting under the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850. Margaret Garner's defense attorney moved to have her tried for murder in Ohio, to be able to get a trial in a free stateand to challenge the Fugitive Slave Law as well. Her story was the inspiration for the novel Beloved (1987) by Nobel Prize winner Toni Morrison, which was adapted into a film of the same name starring Oprah Winfrey, as well as for her libretto for the early 21st century opera Margaret Garner (2005), composed by Richard Danielpour.

Remembrance has not escaped us. Trapped now in our smallest
self, we, repositories of the remembrance of the way violated…that is our
vocation to find…our healing self, we the black people…The remembrance is of a
harsh time, horrid, filled with pains…It was left to the women to begin the
work of the healing…”
