Black Americans go to Palestine to help the people, are called racial slurs, and are now being vilified for speaking out

[Astroslik]

Man stop it
Black Americans just as xenophobic and anti-immigrant as white Americans, get around any actual black people and watch how they speak about diasporans or any immigrants from the global South. Only difference is they have no means by which to enact policy that reflects that bigotry. If anything the segment of black Americans that wants to establish solidarity with other oppressed peoples is the minority

this is a retarded ass take, you need to go outside and socialize. Black americans largely dont give a fukk about african immigrants and why should they? They have more pressing issues to worry about than someone who comes from some impoverished country

@Drip Bayless family is from Sierra Leone and Ghana


Here is a post where @Drip Bayless is co-signing Africans views on FBAs as being lazy and uneducated:

That explains it, his parents/family are barely scrapping by here, hence the envy against black americans.

The woman that made the video is a Palestinian woman that regularly posts videos about her culture and the violence they face.

She's an idiot. She complained about Black people engaging in "oppression olympics" only to then use the same hierarchy of suffering to dismiss the Black participants experiences with racism. If they're mistreating Black people, it doesn't magically become okay because Palestinians are oppressed. You can't admit that anti-Blackness is global, but then try to hand-wave it by claiming it as "misapplied Western thinking."

That is just a convenient excuse to avoid addressing it. Instead of engaging with what the Black travelers felt, she spent more energy defending her group and downplaying what happened. Using Afro-Palestinians as a deflection only made it worse. You can't call for unity while ignoring people's pain or suggesting they should just "understand" and move on from it. That's blatant erasure.

Having said that, I'm not going to use this situation to judge all Palestinians. I understand human nature well enough to know that every community has people who get it and people who don't get it. There are Palestinians who show real solidarity with Black struggles, just like there are Black folks who stand with Palestine. We should be able to talk about this w/o throwing entire groups under the bus.

What's also annoying is how this is being weaponized by Zionist bad actors who have never cared about Black people. They rationalize anti-Black racism in their own ranks, treat African asylum seekers like garbage, and love to trot out Ethiopian Jews as a shield, just like the woman in the video tried to use Afro-Palestinians to deflect criticism. It's all exploitation.

They not over there to complain about Dank Demoss getting her Lyft ride canceled

I've watched the entire thing but she didn't mention the racial slurs at all, where is that at?

This is Tanehisi Coates vs Frank B. Wilderson III in a nutshell... And what intersectionality tried to address...

She didn't say anything crazy or wrong in the video in and of itself... But IF it really happened, to expect people to get called slurs and just take it on the chin is crazy. On the other hand, if people showed you love and you're making your whole trip about one incident, you're forcing it.

That episode basically sums up the experience of Black solidarity with other groups it's a complicated but necessary thing

There are two sides to every story and I’d like to hear the black folks rebuttal, however, this woman comes off as insufferable and elitist.
She doesn’t appear to be a reliable narrator.

Pathetic souls..

No race is hated more than black folks, we all we got. That's why they try to keep us divided with tribalism etc.

 

[Robbie3000]

I thought this would be the second post
They're literally killing reporters and UN workers but a buncha nikkas can hang out?

I even skipped ahead to see if anyone had details on the actual incident and why it happened, but nope. Just outrage.

Black people always failing to read the room
A 5 year old Ethiopian child would have told you this was going to end badly.

If that child’s punk ass daddy took care of business on his side of the world instead of spending his days scheming to find ways to come to America and drive cabs for white people we wouldn’t have these issues in the first place.

The coli full of straight fukking idiots.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS "PALESTINIAN" ... THEY ALL REFERRED TO THEMSELVES AS "ARAB" PRE-1960S ... PRE-1948, EVEN JEWS OF THE REGION WERE CALLED "PALESTINIAN JEWS" .... PALESTINE WAS A COLONIAL NAME GIVEN TO THE REGION BY THE CONQUERING ROMANS, NOT A NATIONAL IDENTITY

THE CURRENT "PALESTNIANS" ARE A MIX OF JORDANIANS, EGYPTIANS, SYRIANS, AND LABANESE....

WHICH ARE ALL..... ARABS

LOL

Now do “Israelis” and “Jews”
