I’m featured in this podcast, & so is someone from N’COBRA, & as usual, N’COBRA is breathtakingly imbecilic in its reparations framing. N’COBRA’s clumsily making the case that Black immigrants have suffered under America’s economic system & are, therefore, owed reparations.

In 2021, NHJ—when challenged about using nonspecific terms—explicitly rejected specific terminology for descendants of slavery. In her recent essay, however, she used “descendants of slavery” over a dozen times & reaches the conclusion that flattened Blackness & POC harm ADOS

So I found my Yvette 101 quote "we measure group wealth by data, not your friends circle" 💋✨ no bars

It’s more complicated. Diddy’s job was to create the illusion that Black billionaires exist & were created through hard work & business expertise. Once he went at Comcast & Diageo, he violated the contract. And his protection was a part of that contract. Going at these

Styles was NOT called to testify before the Commission. And no wonder. She provided corroboration for a woman who could destroy the Commission BS. So what happened to Victoria Adams' testimony? The Commission BURNED HER TESTIMONY.

MLK on the myth of the bootstrap philosophy and the debt that's owed to Black Americans. #Reparations

Yvette Carnell 🇺🇸 So, N'COBRA has been fighting white supremacy for over 30 years, but the room they're afraid to go into is the one with #ADOS in it?

Don’t let people who immigrated to America for a “better life” convince you to be ashamed of being American. Make no mistake about it — they want citizenship more than anything. Many were willing to cross deserts and oceans alike to get here.

Found it. Here’s the now deleted tweet of Ida Bae Wells diminishing reparations advocacy as “one note samba”. Now, however, she’s remaking herself as an expert on that “one note” & exclaiming its necessity. Seems like she’s making that “one note” her main show.

We #ADOS did not cause the harm Japanese Americans experienced during internment, but we also didn’t get to opt out of paying for it. Why? Because the harm was caused by a country—- America— not an individual. Harms caused by a country must be paid by that country. That

Where’s the outrage?

It’s easy as pie to figure out who is #ADOS & who is a Black immigrant or their progeny

Again, America knows how to pay reparations, even in complex cases. This country is making a choice to oppress us.

A brief primer on Blackness in America. Black immigrants are not Black Americans nor African American. And this isn’t meant in a divisive way or derogatory way. I am saying this is how they identify from personal experience. They are denoted by their country and American. And

Why didn’t anyone ask Cameron if the plan was to put up Quinn why didn’t you? Then you know they are working together #bb26

🪷🐝 Sharone Wellington-deAnda🖖🏾 You said that #ADOS is an offshoot of #FBA meaning that Tariq aka Marcus Sanders formed ADOS. The lie detector came back and that is a bald faced lie. Run the tape.

And this is the problem with assigning disadvantage to anyone with melanin rather than assessing actual harm through lived experience & lineage. The program through which Harris was admitted to law school wasn’t designed for her. She stole someone else’s opportunity #ADOS

Defining ourselves as #ADOS through disaggregation is necessary. The same goes for creating boundaries around our lineage & dispatching with the vile smear that we’re lost & without culture. But please don’t forget that this is more than internet fodder. This is not just about

When people accuse #ADOS of “playing the victim”, they don’t understand that real victims are made, not played. We are real victims, whereas victims of “reverse discrimination” are *playing* the victim. Theirs is a game of pretend & make-believe. Ours is a harsh reality of
