Feminism using black and latino men as the boogie men to sell their agenda :mjpls:. I can see why some brothers want nothing to do with the white womans feminist movement.
This is true..

But honestly, I have no idea why black women would want a part of the modern day feminist movement.

Although it's completely understandable and absolutely neccessary as a movement to help to make sure the rights of women are acknowledged and protected, it saddens me that they aren't hip to the game that it is yet another pro-white agenda.

When Beyonce is decried as an individual who shouldn't be represented as a voice for feminism by white feminists but a white male who simply puts on a t-shirt with a pro-feminist slogan is heralded as a hero for feminism...that's all you need to know about what it's really about.

White feminists would rather champion the rights of white gays, bisexuals, transsexuals, cis-genders, gender neutral persons, and other "POCs" (I hate that term for many reasons), before the rights of black people.

They were maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad silent when Mike Brown got killed and protesters were getting tear gassed in Ferguson by cops. Maybe a retweet/reblog or two out of liberal white guilt, but other than that, their silence pretty much sums up how they feel about the plight of black people. From what I've observed on social media, they would rather care about the representation of white women in the video game industry, comic book industry, and other meaningless industries that are white male dominated and have little to no minority representation where blacks are almost non-existent and other non-problems that the first world bears then the civil liberties, human rights, and socioeconomic progression of black people.

smh of course they did I read about this earlier and they tried to say that they had to edit them out because there was always something distracting going on when the white guys said something, like a siren or something. So somehow they catch what all the non white guys say but can't even get one white guy. ok.

The director of a viral video showing a woman being harassed more than 100 times in 10 hours while walking through New York admitted a lot of white men in the video were edited out.

The video, entitled 10 Hours of Walking in NYC as a Woman, has already been seen by more than 14 million people on YouTube since it was uploaded on 28 October.

The clip claims to show every instance in which the woman in the video was either catcalled, whistled, or shouted at in the street while walking silently and "through all areas of Manhattan wearing jeans and a crewneck T-shirt".

One segment of the clip even shows one man walking directly alongside her in silence for five minutes after attempting to speak to her.

The video, created by anti-street harassment organisation Hollaback! and marketing agency Rob Bliss Creative, was generally praised for highlighting the levels of intimidation women have to endure when walking down the street.

However, some viewers questioned why a majority of the males were black or Hispanic in a video which claimed to show more than 100 incidents of harassment "involving people of all backgrounds".



The video's director, Rob Bliss, took to Reddit to answer any questions about the video as it began to go viral.

When one user asked why the video does not appear to represent the actions of men from all backgrounds like it claims, Bliss said the numbers were more even during filming, but the New York noise pollution meant many of them were edited out of the final cut.

He added: "We got a fair amount of white guys, but for whatever reason, a lot of what they said was in passing, or off camera. So their scenes were a lot shorter, but the numbers themselves are relatively even.

"Also, we didn't always capture the audio or video well -- there's a siren that kills the scene, or someone walks in front of the camera, so we had to work with what we had.

"Cities are noisy, and full of people that walk in front of the camera, you know? By chance, this is how it looked and it didn't end up being the perfect representation of everything that happened, but we really did have a broad spectrum of people that said/did something."




Bliss has previously been accused of misrepresenting racial diversity in one of his videos, reported Slate.

In 2011, another viral YouTube video of his which aimed to promote the Michigan town of Grand Rapids saw a large majority of white males and females lip syncing to Don McClean's American Pie, even though 47% of the town's residents are non-white.
