Lol. The misinformation in this thread is laughable. I don't care much for issa rae but how is she solely the child of an African immigrant when her mother is an AFRICAN AMERICAN from LOUISIANA who moved to LA as a child? Issas mother graduated from Dorsey High School, a historically black school, in Los Angeles. How is she removed from AA experience when her mother is AA and raised her? Cats in here talking about what does issa know about Jim Crow and slavery? Lmao quite a bit considering a set of her grandparents did what a lot of West Coast blacks did. Leave the racist violent oppressive south in the 50s and 60s in search of a better life. You dudes pretend to care about black issues but are the most divisive. Ready to discredit or tear someone down even when your facts aren't completely in line with reality. Shame on u and yvette for trumpeting this bullshyt.

This is a short article about the death of Issa's aunt. Her mother, who is mentioned in the article, is named Delyna Hawyard (maiden) Diop is obviously the name she adopted when she married Issa's father. Tell me again about how Issa shouldn't speak on AA issues when she is half AA and grew up from the age of 5 onward in America.

This is from my first post on the youtube this whole thread is based on
This is a discussion that needs to be had, but honestly. Not all black people are in the hood. Do the children of the 6-cert, 6-figures, 36-24-36 couple deserve protection from discrimination too, or are they on their own?

If we're asking questions, does Issa Rae speak for the children of Senegalese bruhs slangin dem handbags in NYC? Can they relate to her show? Do Raven Simone or Basketball Wives speak for African Americans?
:comeon:

Does the one drop really still apply in Los Angeles today?

TAKEAWAY: "The goal is to select a candidate that can be sold to rich(white) donors(TRUTH!).
If the solution is to "demand" stuff from these same cats:wtb:
how are we going to pull that off?

HBO is a business and Issa Rae is a businesswoman (I hope). I'm not interested in pigeonholing black folk. there's plenty of other people doing that job. Still don't know why there's a reparations joke on that type of show. Really don't care though,but he who lives by sword, ..........Ask Bill Cosby

The Issa Rae shyt seems stupid asf. Last I checked she isn't claiming to speak for all black people.

And you can't tell Issa Rae to stop doing what she's doing and just "do her".

Her fukking show is literally based on her fukking life, starring her, doing the shyt she actually did , from her fukking perspective, off of the script she fukking wrote.

Issa is literally doing 100% her, in every fukking way. Not that its going to stop the fake woke nation from hating on another successful black person no matter what; but damn, that just shows how deep their self hate is. Issa started her shyt by doing self bio bits on her YT channel based off her own life, and spun it into a successful Black operated/staffed and cast HBO show, and these nikkas STILL got hate in they blood.

People need to step back and look at the larger picture from a distance. All these fake woke a$$holes do is spend day after day hating on Black folk. Usually successful ones.

ANY fukking body who does that is your enemy. Stop falling for the oke dokey just because these devils were born with our skin color. An enemy is an enemy, no matter the melanin level.

repped.

I watched the entire segment on issa rae and some of the kamala harris portion miss me with that

Her whole bridge to wrapping issa into that point is the fact that her show didn't encapsulate the "AA experience" and because of that it's somehow delegitimizing it. That is fukking toxic no way around it. Think about it, if Issa was any other race would we be talking about how a romance drama show is delegitimizing the experiences of millions of people?

Furthermore the argument is pointless and vague. What experience is being omitted to the point where it's a slight on the entire ethnic group? How much good does the "legitimate experience" in a work of fiction do for her to attack issa over it? Why are we acting like Issa is the only black person in the media so it's up to her to legitimize us? Why are we acting like the "AA experience" has never and will never be portrayed?

This is clown shyt

I think whats not being said overall in this thread is not only will the dominant society up hold non AAs as representation for AAs, but these AAs have their own agendas that are NOT FOR AAs, but for acceptance. Yall really fooled by these "akward black girls" but kamala is not even AA let alone fully black, sleeping with the enemy, and issa has a history of shytting on black men and bedwenching in her show, I dont watch her show, but the preview shows her kissing on white boys.

White people allow these type of black women to run amok with what ever anti-black (male) agenda they have, and we accept it because "these are our queens who need to be praised." These people are dangerous as hell.
:wow:

I stand corrected on Rae's ancestry if true. Though I'm not going to pretend she isn't removed from AAs being the daughter of an African daughter.

A person who makes fun of reparations and says old folks need to die out still shouldn't speak on AA issues.

And, Yvette is still 100% correct about the need for AA ethnocentrism
Issa being a c00n is more tied to her beliefs than heritage.

Issa being born and raised to a wealthy Senegalese man in Senegal definitely impacted her views on reparations and racism.
I don't get why would a wealthy African want to raise their child in America.

More than that, how could she related to other Black people outside of the Boule. She really has been isolated and lived a sheltered life.

I'm definitely not going to vote for Kamala. I don't care if Trump gets 4 more years, no black man should vote for her.
She will get Black male votes, that is unquestionable. At the end of the day, she is a good looking assumed Black woman named Kamala running v. A raging racist. She will get votes but she won't get mines. Not today or ever unless her objectives change which is extremely unlikely

So I'm supposed to hate Kamala?

Nah.

Not hearing it today.

I know people directly connected with her. I'm not revealing how close on here.

She's cool with me.

Y'all hate doing what it takes to get shyt done in this world.

Salute to Kamala. Salute to Hillary. Salute to any one who runs as a democrat on a center-left, progressive platform advancing things I generally agree with.

Y'all can play with these republicans if you want to.
