I'm going to do a thread right now of 10 things Black Americans must ask each other, going into #2019 ...Here we go.....
1. How has jumping from different traditional religions helped us against systematic white supremacy?
2. Black Americans have helped every single group in this country, but can we name one time in history when ANY of these other groups have COLLECTIVELY helped Black Americans as a group?
3. Now that law enforcement and the judicial system has be completely infiltrated by white extremist groups, and they have a green light to racially target us with impunity, how do Black Americans combat this?
4. The dominant society doesn't help Black people with ANYTHING...Yet the white LGBT community has been on a campaign to target Black heterosexuality under the narrative of challenging "Black toxic masculinity". Do you think they genuinely CARE about the well being of Black ppl?
5. If we allow the white LGBT community (with the backing and support of the dominant society) to attack Black masculinity, who will be the warrior class in our society to protect the community from white supremacist attacks?
6. Are we going to allow politicians to come around Black people with their singing and dancing and pandering for votes, or are we going to demand that they provide something TANGIBLE from Black Americans? (not "minorities" or "poc")
7. When Black people ppl protest about racial injustices against us, WHO are we protesting to? Who are we protesting FOR? Because based on evidence, no other racial group gives a damn about us being mistreated. Why “protest” when other groups have waged war against us?
8. Do you think people from other races will stop harboring anti-Black views because you allow them to have sex with you?
9. Do you think your sexuality or sexual preference will supersede your Blackness, in a system of white supremacy?
10. Do you believe the “Creator” (whatever name you want to give him) created you to cowardly accept racial abuse into perpetuity?
