It really is an invention, but I don’t think this kind of romanticizing of Africa survives actual friendships/relationships with real Africans, which is why I wonder— how many American Pan Africanists have African friends? Or is it all just theatre?
So Black men are outnumbered in every positive income category and outnumber Black women in the no income category. BM have less education, more death & incarceration, yet we are told Black men should not be scientifically studied in U.S. departments outside of feminist theory.
When I explained how BM are vulnerable to IPV/IPH there is a deliberate denial of the evidence. This BM & father was killed by his ex-gf for no reason.

@plies@KamalaHarris Do I need to build a full thread regarding Kamala Harris' grievances just like I did for Biden as it pertains to Black People?
Either you are slow or you are being paid as a social media "influencer" for which you are doing a poor job.
If Minhaj told everyone the truth—that he’s always been an affluent immigrant leading a white life—he wouldn’t have a story. He wouldn’t have that joke. So he lies.
(Only brilliant comics find humor in the mundane, and he ain’t that)
“In ‘Homecoming King’..his crush on a friend, a white girl with whom he shared a stolen kiss and who accepted his invitation to prom but later reneged in a humiliating fashion”
A lie about “brown boy” racism. That white girl is now married to an Indian. https://t.co/F2n0OPmrTL
White America made Black America the face of American wealth across the globe and then whites kept all the actual money. You can thank @Diddy@Drake@beyonce@oprah#kanye@sc#jayz@kingjames@TigerWoods@rihanna@tylerperry@StephenCurry30 and many more. You really can ask the whole #decadentveil to take a bow for damaging racial politics in immeasurable ways by taking part in this veil.
Fam, did y'all know about this?
#KamalaHarris snatched #NinaSimone's estate away from the direct descendants of the High Priestess of Soul!

Let’s remember. “... A black worker encountered a noose at an auto plant in Wyoming, Mich.; shop floor supervisors at a non-union facility in Warren gestured to each other with Nazi salutes; and racist graffiti was found in the .... in Ohio.“

From 2012 to 2021 to 2023, it really is the same old playbook.
What other group would be satisfied with and continue to provide support for a total lack of results?
#ReparationsFirst#DownBallot
When it’s time to win football games, Black Men are celebrated.
When it’s time to decrease Black unemployment or increase Black business ownership or engage Black Voters, Black Men are ignored, disrespected and demonized.
To those joining forces with N’COBRA, NAARC etc to get an executive order on reparations —you’re walking into a trap
What we learned during the HR 40 debacle is that the CBC & Black Washington DC elites are Pan Africanists.
The minute this executive order gains traction, they’re throwing the lineage framework in the trash.
And since you don’t have a grassroots movement with which to push back—they win. You lose.
The plan is to peel off enough of y’all to create some energy for their plan & appear inclusive, then dump you as they near the finish line bc they don’t need you.
They only need your energy & to neutralize you for awhile, so you won’t make a fuss or protest. By the time y’all realize what’s happening—that you’ve been duped— it’ll be too late.
It’s a simple plan.
I don’t think people much cared about this #investfest. It came and went. Not sure if it’s even worth a show gauging the interest. Boy didn’t they try to push this craze? They took all the old #decadentveil Black celebrities from 2000 they could find to try to sell these $300 tickets on the financial golden brick road to nowhere. 🤫😆 Black folks generally could care less is the after message. 🤫🤷🏿♂️👀🇺🇸🙋🏿♂️
In my view the #investfest was a conference for young Boomers of 1987 working jobs with pensions and buying $75k homes. Sold off to millennials in 2023 working gig jobs and living the consequences of believing in Nixonian Black economics as uplift for 40 years too long. A conference created by people who don’t really understand race or wealth in America. 🙋🏿♂️🤫 @JTPocketWatcher @CommonSenseEli in my view the money is in selling classes to the aspirational not investing in assets. Tell them give it away for near free if it isn’t. And make money when the participant does. 🤷🏿♂️
