The bed has been made :yeshrug:

I assume that this was the goal. Far right groups are going to use the ADOS movement to justify their political attacks.

It's a good time for ADOS internet brehs to cash in and be pundits now that shyt is going to go mainstream :shaq:

Hopefully it leads to reparations? :ohhh:

If it doesn't...:francis:


This isn't internet punditry this is the effect hundreds of years of systematic oppression bubbling up to the surface. Stop trying to invalidate this movement.

tbh the large majority of black people won't care if she has black american parents. she is relatable to us because she went to an hbcu and pledged a black sorority.

you can argue about her politics, but this idea of what determines if a person is "black enough" is stupid. and white people definitely have no say in that discussion at all. republican conservatives trying to play this reverse mind trick on some "she's not really one of yall" will backfire and cement their racist approach to define blackness.

come at her about her politics but making this about whether she is black enough is idiotic and very shallow. this is the same thing they did back in the day to create division and sow distrust between house and field slaves. good thing is most black people don't fall for that bullshyt anymore.

That’s the issue with the ADOS movement you guys need to focus more on getting reparations and stop attacking black immigrants. Whether Kamala is ADOS or not is a waste of time. Focus on getting reparations for crying out loud:snoop::snoop::snoop::snoop:

Above the fray.
OP
Kamala was a cashcow for YC/AM and tariq. She was the scapegoat that was used to draw support, likes,etc. Literally her campaign coincided with the rise of support. AND not shortly after she dropped out, with the scapegoat/target gone, did those figures turn on each other. Happened in real time in coli threads.

Cashcow being back should serve as a stimulus package for both groups.

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.

well first off we have to acknowledge that kamala is a biracial. in NO OTHER group but black folks is 50% of their group equal to 100%. as a member of the us military (no/conquered kewn) i was stationed over seas in south korea. and over there you had a lot of half white koreans running around who were products of miscegenation via white soldiers who fukked them hoes and boned out on their kids (yet they put that shyt on black men like they shyt don't stink lmao); and do you want to know what them koreans called those half white korean citizens?

"war babies" :dead:


like yeah you related to us on some distant relative shyt but ain't no way you in the nuclear family with us. you something different. it's not divisive or ignorant for us to make that distinction as well, hell it's logical and much needed. how the fukk is she black when she was birthed outta frieda pinto p*ssy??

Expect all of the mainstream Liberal media outlets to go on a full scale assault to get ADOS voters in line before the election.

You should simultaneously expect all of conservative media outlets to go full scale cointelpro 2.0 to get the black vote neutered.

ADOS: :coffee:

White Supremacists:

and as far as african american goes IF ole girl were 100% black but caribbean then she would be considered an african american despite not being the descendant of american slaves. when jesse jackson put the term (it was grass roots from black scholars mainly in chicago who were tired of hearing irish, italian, german etc americans but we the only ones not attributing our identity to a home country just a color) african american out there in run jesse run 1988 african american was an all encompassing term for all black folks who live in america period

so for me being a 1st generation caribbean american anchor baby whose slave lineage is in st. lucia and not america i would still be considered an african american by jesse and them original definition of it... because it was looked at through the lens of 1555 ya dig. though in no way am i trying to muddy or infringe on the reparations argument. i'm not eligible nor should i be, but am a staunch supporter. maybe west indians will take it as motivation like our uk brothers and sistas did in bristol uk off the strength of the montgomery bus boycott back in the 60's and bring the ruckus to the british empire for our reparations and stop being so damn callow and weak minded
