James Baldwin was born August 2, 1924 in Harlem.

Everyone’s giving him his deserved props but if he was around today, y’all and y’all’s supreme leader Mullah Nasheed would all be calling him a bussy boy and part of the LGBT agenda to destroy Black masculinity and all that bullshyt.

nah Baldwin was different. he kept it Black 1st not Rainbow 1st.

That is not true at all. Again, if they are truly pro black we welcome them. The same way we welcome James Baldwin's works right now in 2021. The same way we welcome Luther, Frank Ocean, Little Richard.

Frank Ocean? Are you kidding me? He got flamed here when he came out. Luther and Little Richard never came out publicly about their sexual orientation, so I’m not sure why you mentioned them.

Neither did James Baldwin

Not all gays are the same

this man here is great and accomplished great things

He wasn’t waltzing around in gimp outfits during pride parades

And he wasn't being pimped out like the black people today are being used by the agenda.

Funny how a lot of gay people like to say the black community is homophobic but glance over the work of James Baldwin

He was Black before he was Gay. They don't like that

Yeah but if he was alive today he would come out and y’all would clown him and make stupid bussy jokes and ignore everything he had to say cause he was gay.

You keep repeating yourself and you want to believe it but it's not true. Yes we will crack jokes but so what, you are equating hurting feelings with white supremacy.

I think Umar is a clown 50 percent of the time and he gets cracked on too.

He was Black before he was Gay. They don't like that

This is the main difference.

Langston Hughes was also gay. It was never made the main focus of his story. Most Black people back then had pride, class, and decorum. They kept their personal lives where it belonged at home because they knew and understood the assignment and the work was for the community as a whole.

 

[Neuromancer]

Yet he displayed non Harlem behaviour

who cares? He was black before all else.

All this Pride shyt didn't start happening until these gay groups realized they could get money and attention for being gay. Before that it didn't matter who you were fukking cuz there was no money or agenda attached to it.
