White women consistently side with white supremacy and misogyny in overwhelming numbers. Many are the Susans that smile in the faces of BIPOC people and then stand in line to vote for their destruction.
There is a scary number of Black men who will throw Black women, Black queer and Black transgender people including children off a moving bus to gain a limited access to privilege. 🥺🥺
Black women are confronting the dichotomy of being used by the system as political pawns while being robbed of their voices in the name of political expediency.
Black women are...
Binaries are killers. Gender binaries, political party binaries, all binaries. Division breeds hate, creates distractions and makes it easy for the oppressors to collect the spoils.
Latinx people who hope to pass in a white supremacist system are having a collective identity crisis that involves voting against themselves and invisibilizing their Afro-Latinx grandmas and cousins. Miami is a complicated place where colonial residue and internalized racism collide to make progressive equate to communist.
The destruction of the labor movement was part of a powerful political strategy to disenfranchise and alienate progressive white working class people. It worked.
The two party system has always been and continues to be about consolidating white power. AmeriKKKa’s institutions including the electoral college are tools of white supremacy that desperately need us to believe in their validity in order to survive.
The bar is so low that the best we can hope for is a win for white mediocrity.
White supremacist violence is again becoming more obvious and more in our faces. It is clear that many would rather destroy this country than share it with BIPOC people.
As Black women, our mission and our work is the same no matter who is president.
