I find it interesting that the higher I went in salary/company prestige, the less hoops I had to jump through. the jobs paying nggas $300k+ a year do not drug test like lower paying ones. Idk exactly how this connects to classism & anti-blackness but i just know it does somehow.
There’s a hidden undercurrent of evangelical xtianity of ‘taming savages’ and is why it was & is spread. When white couples LIKE THEM adopt Black babies, they subconsciously seek to erase their personhood bc they see Blackness as something that has to be tamed and domesticated.
I have traveled to four continents and at least nine countries. My American blackness always afforded me being welcomed warmly and respectfully. But I suspect I would be greeted differently if I returned to some of those locations because of this.
“The Chinese government crushed the Tiananmen Square protesters to combat anti-Blackness” is one of the most cracked out things I have ever read on this already deeply cracked out website
I know I shouldn’t expect anyone on Twitter to have a nuanced take on blackness, but the replies and QRTs are saying exactly what the book is saying, at least according to the blurb.
I may actually buy it, mostly because I’m curious about its contents.
No. You are raising BLACK children in a system of global white supremacy. And just because you have the luxury of ignoring the existence of that system of anti-Blackness, those children DO NOT. And as a “parent” those children need to be taught the truth for their own safety
