@Ames2420 trump takes the health care away from millions of his white followers before lying about his relationship with a white man who trafficked white women.
American authoritarians are nostalgic about the destruction of Black bodies. We’re blind to the reality of the effects of our bonds with the British Empire.
Sorry, but Tucker just shows the pulling down of the statue to Edward Colton in Bristol, a leading slave trade of his era, and calls him a philanthropist.
reminded of that eric williams observation: “The British historians wrote almost as if Britain had introduced Negro slavery solely for the satisfaction of abolishing it.”
@NYEMG @DeanerNeedsLove @NewYorkStakz@nypost Without the wealth created by billions of hours of uncompensated labor by enslaved African Americans, would the USA be like it is today? Doubtful. To the American right, there is no justifiable resistance to white supremacy by people of African descent.
@jimnc0454@NewYorkStakz@nypost Do you think voting for Republicans, who use violent rhetoric to delegitimate Black political agency, deny police violence, and limit discourse is the answer?
@NewYorkStakz You had a clutch the pearls reaction. It would be hilarious were it not sad. Kids should know the truth. Yes, Madison was brilliant while at the same time a human trafficker. That anyone should be “protected” from that realization is ridiculous.
@blackfacts1st@NewYorkStakz He actually said something to the effect that children should be protected from the fact that many of our country’s presidents owned and trafficked people.
@NewYorkStakz And you’re proud of it? Who are you? Why do you think they put you on this set with a fox announcer (it’s not news) who can’t say Montpelier?
