Above the fray.
I got to hit you with one of these breh. :unimpressed:

We've created an idol out of our struggle. Whether it's those who align with what they call the "black radical tradition" or those of us part of "legacy black institutions". The former love their lectures and the later love their luncheons and charity dinners. I'm not here for none of that. The various social network and relationships that grow from these are important no doubt but they only matter to the degree that the majority of black people are doing well. We're backsliding.

I recognize the historical wins and simply as a consequence of being from New York, I have indirect connections with some of these people (one notable figure provides a livelihood for a close relative). So it's not like I don't recognize what has or is being done. It's simply not enough and many of the prevailing "strategies" I just don't vibe with. There's too many stilted "let's bury the n-word in a grave" type thinking I'm seeing from the boule set. They still on that presentable "preferably" light skin shyt too as much as they would want to deny it.
I can respect this. There is nuance in all of these issues. We agree that there has been a benefit from these organizations.
I tend to think that we aren't fully utilizing the resources and access available to us from these people and organizations. I also think those of us who aren't from these backgrounds need to put in work in conjunction to what they are doing. We are closer to the communities and people who are suffering, and might have a better understanding of what can address/correct the problems.
But right now, they are the genuine power brokers in the community.

Did you not remember Booker's response or what his ethnic background is?

Or did you just feel like typing "Kamala said and did x, y,z , what AA would do that?"
Well, I am addressing Kamala, not Corey. I wonder

Hell
I'm done with the thinking about this stuff, it's up to white people to wise up at this point. When they realize they're getting played then they'll tighten up their racism and focus more on liberals (black American) policies than anything else. Right now, immigrants can exploit them due to racial shame with black Americans, they need to figure out who's black and who's an immigrant and then take it from there.

Nothing we can do, fighting with each other is a waste of time, those at the top can easily suffocate the noise.

This may backfire because cacs are just gonna talk about Kamala's racial heritage.

... How does a writer for NYT, author of the 1619 Project, who writes about the various Black experiences in America, not know the differences between race, ethnicity, and nationality?
:coffee: Bc her real beat is education. Look it up. She knows nothing on this topic whatsoever.

I can't stand that Ida Wells, woman. Another black DNC shill who is about imagery over substance :francis:

2024 can't come soon enough

She is responsible for the 1619 project so this shocked me

Is she still a shill?





The way that some of y'all can reduce people down to nothing when you don't agree on every point....

The point of the 1619 project was to lay out the foundational authoritative literature that can be used by ADOS in it's claims for reparations.

You can clearly see this in the causes she supports such as *legacy admission for descendants of slaves.

The point of her correcting that Mark Levin, was not that she didn't agree with him, she did, she wanted to send a message to white people that ados and ados only has the autonomy to set their own identity without white input or commentary.

This doesn’t excuse her attempt to gaslight The ADOS people who questioned Kamalas lineage

How did you surmise this? Because every comment I saw, she was telling ADOS to not let white men speak on our issues.





Where was she gaslighting ADOS? You and a few others seemed to misunderstood the purpose of that tweet. That tweet was aimed specifically at white people.

Why is the detail about her ancestry important right now?

Trump is a German immigrant. He married eastern European women.

He's in office.

Tanehesi Coates proclaimed him the "First White President"

Trump is neither an English descendant of the Pilgrims of Plymouth Rock.

Neither an English descendant of the Cavaliers of Jamestown.

If South Florida Cubans are subsumed under "whiteness" with no type of nordic European ancestry whatsoever, I don't understand the problem with Kamala?

People don't bat an eye at the classification of Ted Cruz being white, when he's actually latin.

This stuff about there being "white" Hispanics is bullshyt considering 100 years ago, the "creators" of whiteness did not extend the identity of whiteness to those of latin or sub-nordic European descent.

White people wield the identity of whiteness to their gain.

And wield the identity of blackness always for some bullshyt.

At the turn of the 19th century, prominent black New England businessman became interested in going back to and resettling Africa. They started a movement.

White southern planters, who formed the American Colonization Society, saw that movement as a vehicle to send black people, free or enslaved, back to Africa.

The black New England businessmen, after learning about how the ACS coopted their movement, pumped their breaks and said "nah, we're staying right here....America is rightfully ours." They got on code.

Learn from history.

Don't be caught our here co-signing white supremacists who are now co-opting y'all nationalistic movement for their own gain.
Boy you smart

:ehh:

It's funny because black immigrants started to gaslight her :skip:



Talking about they would qualify for reparations
