Flip this scenario. A 16 year old boy pulls a girl off a bike & retells this story. How many people in the audience clap & laugh. Black boys have the earliest sexual debut in the U.S. & report the earliest contact sexual experiences. This is traumatic, not entertainment.

Everyone wants to profit from decolonial theory until it offends the liberal sensibilities of the academic apparatus. Academics will watch people die, watch men & boys be slaughtered & dismembered, only to focus on how these deaths confirm their political ideology.

Notice this claim. So while BM are being locked out of society at large Hill wants you to believe that working class BM crave patriarchal power. Yet, she makes no mention of how BW close to the trigger & in line with the DNC crave carceral power to punish Black people.

A Supreme Court case and legislation was required to defeat segregation, not voting. The government literally feared votes in states would continue segregation, hence federal and judicial action. How do you get that wrong?

@NickHamiltonLA @vexedinthecity To say voting hasn’t changed anything, is just a lie. We used to be a segregated society. Voting changed that. Voting brought a black president. Most of our basic needs were brought by voting. NOT VOTING, though, has done enormous damage

If you listen to contemporary liberal political theories, the only group Black people should not form solidarity & coalitions with is themselves. Only Black solidarity is demonized w/in social-political thought--feminism, class solidarity, etc. is embraced through and through.

A little over 12 million adult Black men. Some of which are disenfranchised. Even when BM can do no harm, America exports a narrative of them as the cause of failure. To blame BM support for Democrats (at 80%) for this election shows that BM can be condemned for anything.

So Black men are outnumbered in every positive income category and outnumber Black women in the no income category. BM have less education, more death & incarceration, yet we are told Black men should not be scientifically studied in U.S. departments outside of feminist theory.

Any gender based analysis that ignores colonialism and imperialism will inevitably result in (often Western) feminists weaponizing a flat understanding of patriarchy to deny the humanity of colonized and racialized men.

The central question is what does the death of 250+ Black males per year & the incarceration of 840,000 Black men & boys achieve for American democracy. The distractions by white liberals & their Black allies take focus away from the violent managing of this population.
