[TOMT] Looking for a TikTok of a woman talking about the destructive nature of colonialism

Pending

I'm looking for a video of this black woman on tiktok, and she is crying, discussing how much colonization has destroyed and taken from not only Africa but the whole world. I'm almost certain it was posted this year (the last 6 months), if not the very end of 2024. I remember she basically said the loss is so great, we can't quantify it. She also says something along the lines of "we will never truly know how much knowledge we traded for a western society. It is unquantifiable." Other phrases I vaguely remember from the video:

• "There used to be tribes where when a woman was pregnant, an elder could tell her the child's gender, health, due date and destiny/purpose simply by TOUCHING her stomach. Now, we go to the doctors and they slab goo on your stomach, use expensive equipment, tell you the genders and say 'ok that'll be $5000 dollars and send you on your way." •"Thousands of years of knowledge and connection to the Earth, gone."

I believe she also briefly mentions the library of Alexandria, either that or the people in the comments do.
