That’s the way I see it. The need for them to jump in our shit about anytime we discuss how America hates equality and how elusive it’s been is an admission of guilt. How do they ignore history, and how do they blame the victims of their madness? It’s so interesting to see how disconnected they are from the realities of People of Color.
Never mind we used to be chattel. Forget we were 3/5ths of a person. Just forget even after we were ordered free some of us still were not freed until decades later. Dismiss how we got here. Dismiss how we were raped, beaten, split up, broken, and killed because we were unequal. Delete how we had to keep rising up to get free. We’ve always sought freedom and equality. I can think of a million examples of how we still aren’t free and the playing field still isn’t equal and all a White guy with opposition disorder can do is tell me how we are wrong and we need to come together. Oh yeah they will give me some stupid bullshit example they got from Fox News, Breitbart or another racist, race-baiting media source. Black folks always need to do something. They always need to “tell us the right thing and the right way” just like Master did when people were enslaved. White men are telling us we don’t know how to think because we can’t see life their way.
White people never need to do anything.
The audacity. The sheer audacity of even asking us to forget our pain and be quiet about our disgust is the most insulting thing a White man can ask of a Person of Color. We spend our entire lives coddling, protecting, and not ruffling the feathers of Whiteness so it can remain privileged, racist and ignorant. So much so it’s killing us so early! The wealth and wellness they get to experience during their lifetimes is always at our expense. They should thank us!!!!
I am not being quiet. We, People of Color, know our evils, and these men opposing our views need to see just how evil America is in plain Jane terms.
I am here for it!
