Black Feminism: A thorn in the side of the Black family

A Black commentator made an interesting, provocative analysis about Black women in a recent podcast. He suggested that the hosts of another well-regarded podcast with two black female (neither of whom are married) and one black male (who is married) host "cryin" over Kamala Harris' loss, invective against the Democratic donor class, who are primarily wealthy, white Jewry out to also protect their whiteness, and sense of betrayal by white women is either misguided or born of naïveté or both. The commentator suggests the sisters along with their contemporaries are victims of their own choosing because they brought into [white] feminism hook, line, and sinker along with those $1,000, 8' long cadaver weaves they fling around unashamedly like vain, adolescent, white girls in a pathetic ode to white supremacy. They fucked around and found out that white feminism was just that exclusively "white."  The Women's Liberation Movement was fostered by young, white, l...

The Democrat Party is not the party of, for, or by Black Folks

I do not care about immigrants, period. I do not care about white women, period. I do not care about Latinos who identify as either "white" or white adjacent, period. No other progressive Black ought to either. And until the Democrats understand this fact, we will continue trying to court these ungrateful constituencies. Ones that showed their collective asses on Tuesday, November 5, 2024, by overwhelming voting for chump the brain dead comic carnival barker aka klueless the klown. I am more concerned about the federal merit system (civil service) where Blacks over index in GS-03 through GS-18 items; Article III court judge appointments (and centrist Democrat senators like Fetterman cross party lines to confirm radical, right wing ideologues because the "country must move forward" or some other rationalization), the Attorney General, DOJ, Department of Education and the social safety net. Those cabinet level appointments will directly and adversely impact our commun...

Holding Space

  We have been holding "space" in this country since before our forced immigration here over 400 hundred years ago. The generational trauma to our collective psyche has some of US identifying with our oppressor (Stockholme syndrome) in the vain hope that whitey will be less brutal, release some pressure from his size thirteen jackboot on our necks, while others take an opposite stance. I am personally done because my anger is not directed toward whitey for doing what they do to preserve their 200 year headstart. My angst is directed at deaf, dumb, and blind Black folk who refuse to rise up collectively to effectively push back against the oppression because they are "not all that racist," or "maybe tRump needs to come back," or "I had more money under tRump", or whatever other bizarre rationalizations they can conjure up in their pea brain for supporting a documented bigot. The fact of the matter is chump the brain dead comic carnival barker aka ...
