1/ This is going to sound a bit … strong, but I’m gonna say it anyway…

Last night, I saw someone who features regularly on TV debating tough political topics saying: “I feel like I can’t comment on Israel/Palestine, I’ll sit on fence” (paraphrase)

Sorry but - WTF

TBC… Image 2/ All some of you are confirming to many of us who don’t have your skin privilege is that … if this was #Apartheid South Africa, if this was #Rwanda genocide… if this was USA🇺🇸 civil rights movement, if this was slavery … you’d be too chicken to speak in case you upset bigots

1/ 🧵
I first came across DEPHER and therefore James Anderson few years ago! Back then, I supported and even donated to the worthy cause that James contributed to - helping vulnerable people!

However, a darker side became apparent! Deliberate participation in bigotry & racism Image 2/ At first I thought I was wrong… so I gave benefit of doubt, but then evidence came forth of his FACEBOOK account! His account liking racist content!

That was the red flag🚩,the red line and the end of my support for him!

What then ensued is UNBELIEVABLE! See @BlackWontCrack

1/ Good morning!
I am still not over the crisis that has been whipped up regarding #DianeAbbott regarding a conversation about distinguishing between RACISM vs PREJUDICE 😳

The articulation may have been clumsy, but I invite someone to explain something to me… 2/ I have Jewish friends- they’ve white skin outwardly.
The only thing that identifies their Jewishness is “name” and of course when they literally tell you “I’m Jewish”

Is it antisemitic to say “a white Jewish person is able to use their white skin to shield away from racism”

1/I feel sad this evening about race relations in the UK…
The fact that 2 demographics that collectively have experienced genocides/crimes against humanity at hands of “white supremacy” cannot seem to understand each other is tragic

One demographic CANT hide behind white skin😪 2/ The Jewish community endured and fortunately survived the horrors of the holocaust - a period where white supremacy aryans: confiscated their livelihoods, subjugated them, sent them to labour/murder camps

Black people endured and survived centuries of similar abuses 🤔🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

1/ It has just come to my attention that none other than @Baddiel is using his Jewishness to attack #DianeAbbott, and indeed signal her for abuse

Let me remind people of how Baddiel articulated his apology to a BLACK man JasonLee
At 3:40

@narindertweets Image 2/ In @Baddiel apology for his antiBLACK racism, he says to JasonLee:
I quote: "...Stuff happened to me, that helped me understand how you (BLACK) must have felt. As I became more well known PARTICULARLY as I put my JEWISH identity a bit more forward, I experienced racism"

1/ Racism Vs Prejudice

Everyone on this earth 🌍- of any race, orientation, ability, gender etc can face discrimination and prejudice

RACISM as it was designed by WHITE Europeans centred around the outward appearance of an individual, with WHITENESS being a protective factor 2/ As we have seen from #Israel with regards to their comments and attitudes towards BLACK people, ARAB people, it is very much possible for people who are outwardly non-of-colour to identify with white supremacy and commit racism against people who are outwardly of colour🤷🏾‍♂️🤔😳 ImageImage

1/ About #DrOki, the @TheBMA - and some of the responses I am seeing from "random" people.

RACISM is a DREADFUL experience for those of us who are not WHITE, who have to experience a form of hate crime that centres around "White is superior, any other race is lesser than" 2/ #Racism in the form that we know it today, centres around Eugenics spread by EUROPEANS as they sailed around the world, invading non-European lands and subjugating the populations they found.

It involve(s)(d):
1) ABUSE 2) MISTREATMENT 3) MURDER 4) SLAVERY, 5) HUMILIATION etc

1/ Being a survivor of the #Rwandan genocide that happened in 1994…

I cannot help but notice similarities between what the west is doing with #sudan and what they did with #Rwanda — which was “rescue their own white people, and abandon the local BLACK to doom and death” ImageImage 2/ So far both #USA and #UK have apparently prepared planes to removed “their citizens” from #Sudan — this is what happened in #Rwanda too

In rwanda - white people were told to leave their black friends behind, and those black people were butchered to death…

This is awful 😳

2/We as a country are reaching dangerous times - we are living a situation where politicians pander to the xenophobic views of voters in order to gain votes and stay in power!

I’m still astounded that @Mark_J_Harper practically skirted around @adilray ‘s concerns with NO empathy 3/ It is highly inappropriate for politicians of all sides to use xenophobia towards minorities as bouncing board to gain votes

The Tory party, @reformparty_uk and other right wing parties are particularly prone to doing this! Sadly @UKLabour has started to emulate this: awful

1/ The tories are an absolute stain on decent politics

It really doesn’t matter which side of “#brexit” you fall on, or which side of “refugees should put in harms way by sending them to a dictatorship in #rwanda” you fall on

But surely everyone sees the obvious? 2/ The election of #BorisJohnson led way to worsening of political practice in this country… through a populist agenda (BREXIT… which was a dog whistle for f*ck foreigners) British people were seduced into electing tories!

This was aided by a strong smear campaign against JC😳
