Thing is, America is set up in such a way that an entire country & its law enforcement apparatus are weaponized against #ADOS.

The individual white doesn’t need to hop on a horse, put on a hood, and terrorize us through random lynchings.

The system is efficient.
I rarely hear an #ADOS person say “OMG! White people are coming into our communities & beating on us!”

No, the complaint is that the system is set up for us to fail, & has been for generations.

White people can’t be this obtuse.
And when police are allowed to behave like this, whites don’t *NEED* to commit violence against Blacks in order to maintain a racialized bottom caste.

The system functions efficiently, to our detriment.

washingtonpost.com/news/morning-m…
When there is no repayment for economic plunder, #ADOS experience widespread poverty, by design.

This system doesn’t require white folk to lift a finger against us. It’s efficient.

And I would argue that these are mass economic & incarceration crimes committed against #ADOS.

As such, it removes the need for whites to commit individual crimes.

This allows whites & POC to maintain a false morality as it relates to our oppression.

And we can’t progress so long as whites are the kings & Queen of confirmation bias.

This is an unserious evasion, an empty platitude.

Y’all owe an explanation to the people who helped Gabe Piemonte at ur advisement: How did Piemonte raise more than the person who placed 2nd, while placing 11th?

Don’t use me 2 dodge accountability. Answer for it.
The real answer is that there never was any plan.

One day they are starting a military academy, the next day a political campaign, & the next day they’re fighting ADOS at OMB.

Scattered & unserious, a bundle of energy like kids on a playground
I’m not speaking to them. My questions are rhetorical because I know they refuse to be held accountable.

I want to be clear to anyone paying attention that there is no future in their “project”.

Theirs is merely the latest in a long line of cloned, vanity projects

The candidate who placed 2nd in Chicago’s 5th Ward Alderman race—Tina Hone—raised $40k.

The “Freedmen” candidate raised $56k & placed 10th out of 11.

Tina Hone: $40, 091 (🥈)

Gabriel Piemonte: $56, 402
The candidate who placed 3rd in the race—Renita Ward—also raised far less than “Freedmen” candidate Gabriel Piemonte:

Renita Ward: $23,283 🥉

Gabriel Piemonte: $56,402 (10th out of 11)
As a matter of fact, Wallace Goode placed 4th—ahead of Gabriel Piemonte who placed 10th— & raised ZERO dollars.

Goode: $0 (4th)

Gabriel Piemonte: $56,402 ($10th)

“Thind argued to the Supreme Court that he was Aryan, and thus White.”

Full stop.

And it must be nice to ascend to the second highest office in America at 100 years since this ruling

Slaves were freed in 1863, & American Descendants of Slavery still haven’t had a president twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
And Thind thought of himself as white because of how he was treated

There is hardly any commonality with Negroes here, and I wish Black academics would stop this nonsense
Thind came here in the 1920s and studied at Berkeley, while American Negroes were toiling on sharecropper farms and convict leasing camps.

Thind’s story is that of an affluent immigrant. It is not at all connected to the struggle of the American Negro.

From the Jewish community to Guam to the Japanese, reparations are paid for harm caused by a country.

It is the globally accepted method for redress.

Your political ignorance is a handicap in this discussion.

Go read 📚. Begin with “When Affirmative Action Was White”
Arguing against redress is the most ignorant position any Negro could possibly take. This is how I know y’all don’t read.
No other group begs Washington D.C. *NOT* to give them money. They lobby for subsidies & all varieties of capital.

Go read that omnibus bill I posted about earlier. It’s full of giveaways.

No idea why any of this is surprising.

Demographically, Colorado is not Jackson. Toughen up buttercup.
Folk need to stop tweeting stuff they’re not going to stand by Image
These people are crazed. When you point out the deficiencies in their arguments, they lash out emotionally.

This is erratic & unhinged.

And not one of my feelings were hurt. I don’t even know why folks still try 🤷🏽‍♀️ Image

Why even do this? Especially when Smith is awful at accents?

I suspect it’s because too many #ADOS are uncomfortable seeing THEMSELVES as slaves. The accent creates emotional distance.

It also takes them away from America & anchors them in a place where they *FEEL* powerful.
A person with a Haitian accent as a slave = Revolution

An American Black as a slave = weak victim

We really need to work through our collective trauma & internalized inferiority. It’s manifesting in a variety of ways.
Until we heal, we will always prefer other stories to our own. We will always be complicit in our own rejection & erasure.

So prepare to see more Wakanda movies & #ADOS stories where we otherize ourselves 🤷🏽‍♀️
