My biggest frustration with ADOS/FBA ideology is the disregard of cross-cultural exchange. These people are educated, but willingly obtuse about the interconnection of our cultures because acknowledging that, to them, erases the identity they’re choosing to cling to in modern times. History is ignored and seeds of discord are sown. Nobody wins and the conversation devolves into ‘blackness a’ vs ‘blackness b’ because one views itself as superior to other. It’s so sad.
When did ppl say that New Orleans was the “northern Caribbean” or an offshoot of Africa? I’ve literally never heard that before.

Framing American politics like this is a big part of the problem. Liberals, particularly white liberals, frame their efforts as benevolent, but their actions are often are self-serving, white-serving or performative. They claim to support progressive policies but maintain systems that benefit them, avoiding deeper structural change. Their advocacy often centres on personal comfort not true equity, and they’re quick to disengage, ever so inconspicuously, when solutions require personal sacrifice. Liberals, especially white liberals, are not that good either.

@dejonsimmons If you left it at “Observing all the political discourse…” it still would’ve been correct. 😂

Again, we assume that because someone is an accountant, a doctor or a lawyer that they’re critical thinkers and are smart. Many of the people in these professions cannot think critically and are not smart.
I am always "shocked" by criminal defendants who claim their innocence and insist they didn't do anything, yet end up plea bargaining and becoming felons. If you didn't do it, why not fight it? Unless you did what you were indicted for. Just asking for a friend.

The Bahamas has a disgusting issue with paedophilia and incest. We ignore abusers’ behaviour. We dismiss the abused. We shield our own from abusers, but don’t warn others. While campaigning the gov’t will say it’s done a lot for women. It will say it appointed the first female COP, that women simultaneously led both house chambers for the first time, that under its watch a woman became CEO of BPL… All of that, yet weekly we learn of men in court for sexually abusing/assaulting girls and women. Per the RPBF, incidences of unlawful intercourse are increasing, and women still cannot seek legal recourse if raped by their husbands. The rate of crimes against girls and women are alarming, but what’s really being done about it? What are we really doing for girls and women in The Bahamas?
A 37-year-old father has been jailed for five years for sexually abusing his three-year-old twin daughters.
