So by that logic Obama should be small capital black since his father was from the wrong side of Africa and not a slave. When will we have our first Black president who isn't just black?
And what of the whites in Africa. Do we capitalize only the Boers who suffered a genocide from the British? Is Musk the only W white we can talk about? That poor richest man with such historic baggage. Truly the best role model for all African Americans.
Oh the racialist hierarchies we build.
- _pius 6y agoSo by that logic Obama should be small capital black since his father was from the wrong side of Africa and not a slave … Oh the racialist hierarchies we build. Not sure why you’re injecting inflammatory bile into an otherwise civil thread. If you read past the first sentence, you’ll refute your own point. Think before trolling.
- konjin 6y agoI get upset when I face racist idiocy of all stripes. That the liberal form of racism gets a pass is something I will never understand about the US. https://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/sites/default/files/Race-Eth%20Data%20Collection.pdf https://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/sites/default/files/R... The highest for of that idiocy I have found so far: the white Somali, Djiboutian and Sudanese. Behold the face of whiteness in California: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/16/President_Barack_Obama_and_First_Lady_Michelle_Obama_greet_His_Excellency_Salva_Kiir_Mayardit%2C_President_of_the_Republic_of_South_Sudan_%28cropped%29.jpg https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/16/Presiden...
