U cant offshoot it. Black conservatism is like Jewish Nazism. "We are going to leave out the concentration camps. We want to build an Autobahn in Israel". We have to get out of this mode of thinking that everything we do has to be an "offshoot". Every important thing black people have done in the US was not an offshoot. The civil rights movement was not an offshoot. Jazz, R&B, rock & roll, rap were not offshoots. Black church was only an offshoot for us to build our communities outside the cloak of suspicion of "mainstream" America.Well we are here... speaking a foreign cac language so the word is just the word... I didn't mean it like a offshoot of cac conservatism which obviously would have us back in chains.
But you're probably right.
Damn near all our offshoots are worthless. "Black" feminism. "Black" conservatism. "Black" reality shows etc. We don't have the same freedom or foundation as the mainstream so we have to think completely differently.
