White Americans that haven't invested time in black culture don't see the discrepancy in saying, "Woke is just empathy for others'. Black Americans know it means having awareness of the apathy from white Americans they will face and how to navigate through it their entire life.

The incel belief that women should be punished for not wanting to fuck them and that there should be some kind of system of attractiveness assigned to everyone to ensure all men get assigned a woman is insanity

Only white men get on these apps and try to convince the rest of us that we need to engage with hate speech in our personal spaces because hurting marginalized people gets their dicks hard. Opinions are like assholes everybody got one and people are not required to engage bigots

Sunday during libation we were asked to think of ppl who’d passed but weren’t related to us. Brother Rice’s name fell heavy on my spirit. I couldn’t locate why so It felt inappropriate and I was even a little embarrassed. Now I’m seeing this. Trust the ancestors and say people’s names!😔🙏🏾❤️‍🩹🕊️

He is admitting that he doesn’t want lawyers to stop him from breaking the law. No one would stop him from issuing lawful orders, so this has to be about unlawful ones.

The white folks in the replies trying to insist OP is wrong is exactly why y’all should stop talking about woke. You don’t know what it means. And when someone Black tries to tell you what it means, he’s accused of mansplaining a lifelong activist. Just absolute shit.

W.E.B. Du Bois on the white takeover of southern public schools after Reconstruction. Not a coincidence that the chapter, "Back Towards Slavery," follows his analysis of the eventual dedegration of the public school system. Attacks on education are vital to (re)instituting authoritarian rule.

I owe the television part of my career to @joyannreid.bsky.social, as do so many other Black voices y'all never would have heard of if not for her. And that's why she's gone. They can treat black folks as interchangeable, but everybody Black knows that Joy was indispensable.

let me say that this is the classic “just asking questions” approach to delegitimizing the achievements of black people. and critically, you don’t even have to be a black person who talks about race. simply being black to these people means you are “obsessed with race.”
