White women kneeling during the anthem to protest “rape culture” is highjacking a movement you took no risks for. You didn’t kneel in solidarity to protest the murder of Black people, don’t co opt & make it about your victimization. That’s white supremacy in the name of feminism.
I can’t help but ask where liberal white women were when we were seeking justice for...

...and so many other Black women. You don’t even know their names.

One more thing, when are y’all going to deal with your Barbecue Becky’s & Permit Patty’s randomly calling cops on Black people for no reason?

White women participate in our oppression, yet try to appropriate the language & movements associated with it.

#AmberGuyger is a murdering liar being protected by the @DallasPD and the media, which is trying to depict Botham Jean, the VICTIM, as somehow responsible for his own death in his own apartment by an intruder killer cop.

I compiled statements by Black pastors who met with @realDonaldTrump at a meeting about "prison reform." Many are back peddling and remixing what was said after the scathing backlash at their failure to confront Trump on his hateful rhetoric, bigotry and divisive policies. THREAD
BLACK PASTORS TO @realDonaldTrump:

“Thank you for your heart for all people”

“Thank you for your leadership”

“Thank you for being compassionate and caring for all people”

BLACK PASTORS TO @realDonaldTrump:

“Your heart for criminal justice reform is very, very amazing”

“It’s very encouraging that you have a heart to begin to bring people together”

“Many people on our team pray for you every single day”

This was the absolute worst display of capitulation by faith leaders I ‘ve ever seen. Black preachers taking turns sucking up to @realDonaldTrump & never once challenging him on his hateful rhetoric, anti-Christian behavior, and divisive racist policies.

Black preacher after black preacher praising @realDonaldTrump, the most racially polarizing figure in the world today, for non existent “criminal justice reform,” & “urban initiatives” and being “the most pro black president in history.”
Black preachers praised Trump for his “boldness,” “compassion,” “caring” and “heart for all people.”

Please tell me how the hell I missed all of this. Was I too busy watching him call black athletes sons of b*tches, Mexicans rapists, or African nations sh*t holes?
