@ZeekArkham It appears you have never been followed in a store for no reason, pulled over while DWB, etc...kudos. Your one in a million. Some of us have actually experienced racism. Must be nice.
@JustJenRX Didn't listen and I'm not going to. Simply want to say..no one wants you to feel guilty, be ashamed or apologize for the color of your skin
Just treat people with respect no matter their color. There is no superior race. Just a Supreme Being and thats the Almighty. Period.
@ZeekArkham Playing in our faces with redistricting, profit prison systems, unfair housing, low wages and police brutality. If we don't talk about it how do we change it? Why is it a pity party to not want to live in a oppressive society? How are guns getting into our young people's hands?
@ZeekArkham Maybe I'm built in a different way....I've never, ever met a black person who walks around blaming yts for challenges in life. We talk about racism, sure because it exists. Thats not a victim mentality. It's our reality. There are still lynching our men and calling it suicide.
@vious_dee@Anarseldain Yt folks fo whatever it takes to distract from the fact that their president is the dumbest human being on the planet...question...what the fk is a 600% deduction?
Say her name. Her name is Jor'Dynn Duncan. She endured unimaginable suffering & cruelty by her father's fiance & family. Previous social services intervention failed her. Where was her father's family? Rest in peace 🕊️ little one.
@DagnyTaggartUSA This is the whitest grocery list I've ever seen. I go to whole foods for fruit or prepped meals only. If you don't carry yourself to @MarketBasket or @StopandShop for the bare necessities then you can't complain. Thay was a very bad decision
When a white male elected official stands in front of a podium and calmly says he hopes the Supreme Court overturns the 14th Amendment,
(The 14th Amendment was passed after slavery to guarantee Black people citizenship and equal protection under the law in America.)
It’s full fucking stop. Period.
Fuck the Met Gala.
Fuck relationship podcasts.
Fuck the NBA playoffs.
Fuck the summer.
Fuck spending money.
Fuck all this shit.
It’s time to shut this shit the fuck down.
They Want to Put Us Back on the Plantation
Alabama House Speaker Nathaniel Ledbetter didn’t misspeak. He said the quiet part out loud. While defending the dismantling of Black political power in Alabama through racist gerrymandering, he openly declared that he hopes the Supreme Court overturns the 14th Amendment, the amendment that granted citizenship to formerly enslaved Black people after slavery.
Let that sink in.
An elected official in 2026 is publicly expressing hope that the constitutional amendment recognizing Black people as citizens of this country will be overturned.
And some people still want to pretend America isn’t racist.
This is what Make America Great Again has always meant to the extremists driving it: rolling back the gains of Reconstruction, gutting voting rights, erasing Black history, dismantling civil rights protections, purging Black people from positions of power, and returning America to a racial hierarchy where whiteness is protected and Black existence is controlled.
I have said many times on my radio program that Black people in America are only a couple of laws away from the plantation. Some people called that hyperbole. It wasn’t hyperbole. It was historical awareness. Because Black progress in America has always been conditional in the minds of white supremacists. Every gain we made had to be forced through protest, bloodshed, organizing, litigation, and sacrifice, and every gain has always faced backlash from people who never accepted our humanity in the first place.
The 14th Amendment is the foundation upon which modern civil rights protections stand. Birthright citizenship. Equal protection. Due process. Voting rights rulings. School desegregation. Anti-discrimination law. All of it flows from the legal recognition that Black people are fully citizens and fully human under the Constitution.
And now powerful Republicans are openly fantasizing about undoing it.
I have absolutely no confidence that this racist Supreme Court will protect Black citizenship, Black voting rights, or Black humanity if given the opportunity to weaken them. This Court has already gutted the Voting Rights Act, enabled racial gerrymandering, weakened affirmative action, and signaled hostility toward every major civil rights protection won through the blood of our ancestors.
So Black people need to stop treating this like politics as usual. This is not a game. This is not partisan disagreement. This is a fight over whether this country will continue moving toward democracy or openly embrace apartheid-style white nationalism.
Our ancestors fought too hard, bled too much, marched too long, and died too young for us to sit comfortably while people in power openly discuss stripping away the very amendment that recognized our citizenship.
If this nation is determined to drag us backward, then we must be just as determined to resist. We must organize, educate, mobilize, vote, protest, litigate, build institutions, protect our communities, and prepare ourselves spiritually, politically, and economically for what is clearly coming.
Because they are not hiding it anymore.
They are trying to put us back on the plantation.
