Honest question, why does it matter what the gulf is being called??
Changing “the Gulf of Mexico” to the Gulf of America” implies ownership of the Gulf by Ameri
KKKa.
The reason why Muslims converted Africans is to impose Arabic culture which is perpetuated through Arabic language uses to pray (among other things)
The reason why Europeans converted Africans to Christianity is to destroy indigenous African cultures that were preserved in the Lexicon of Central and West African cultures.
The reason why J€ws use “chosen people” is to imply superiority over others.
The reason why Abrahamic faiths say “before insert Abrahamic faith, there was only darkness” is to impose the racist idea that indigenous Africans had no knowledge and didn’t know God before non-Black ppl got in contact and therefore deserved and needed enslavement to become civilized.
The reason why White ppl co-opted “woke” is to destroy the effectiveness of the term and replace it with a negative racist connotation equivalent to the N word.
The reason why White ppl currently are using “DEI” is to replace it with the N word and gather collective racist sentiment.
Like what are we doing here? Does this REALLY need to be explained when there’s literally 1000+ years of evidence of anti-Black racism through language to learn why language matters from.
Language is a 1000% political.
It’s a shame that this even needs to be explained to Black ppl WE should know why language matters in detail like none other on this planet because of the harm language has done to us and continues to be done SPECIFICALLY.
