I was introduced to this when the Kavanaugh hearings went as they did. My black friends were all, “You were expecting something different to happen because someone spoke up? That’s not how power works.” Much to my shame it changed my understanding of black struggle in the US.
We've seen this movie before
Are we disappointed?
Yeah
Were we hopeful?
Hell yeah
But anyone who knows the history of this nation knows that
the best Black woman will never beat the worst white guy
They will burn it down before they let that happen 😞
Black folks are going to be ok🙏
I haven't had breakfast so I had to Google the James Baldwin quote: "To be a Negro in this country and relatively conscious, is to be in a rage almost all the time."
