Dear Non-Black People,
Why do you think that (consistently) displaying your anti-Blackness and providing refuge for racism is the calling card for free labor from Black people? Far too many of you spent the last race to POTUS mountain attacking us for existing as we tried vigilantly to warn you of what was to come should Trump return to power. Now that you realize your goal of punishing our community and that you are within the target, you want us to fight FOR you? 😏
I know you are trying to package your entitlement to lack labor as "us fighting together". I noted you bringing up the history of past unification...that YOU chose to break from. I have noticed you utilizing OUR music to try to woo us into the streets FOR you. You're doing everything, BUT apologizing for the anti-Blackness or displaying changed behavior or seven taking what we [previously] gave to you and advocating for yourself.
Every day, the Black community is told that NO ONE TODAY HAS BEEN ENSLAVED. We are told this as every other community within the country is trying to enslave us so that they can receive liberation, equity, and more.
Why spend time when unrest and tyranny are paused to constantly tell us that we are lazy and incapable and need constant saving, to turn around and call upon ONLY us to fight for YOU? Are we lazy and hapless or not? Are we unable to survive without supervision and tutelage from all others... or not? Why are those clamoring for proximity to privilege while labeling themselves superior to Blackness so reliant upon Blackness?
Make it make sense...NOW!
We are BEYOND TIRED of being the labor force of liberation for a nation that commodifies and condemns us every moment of every day. WE are expected to be perfect, which will NEVER be appreciated, while others don't even bother to be mediocre adjacent concerning morality or humanity. Telling us that you stood by our side during protests, boycotts, and more that WE enacted means NOTHING. You did NOTHING on your own to show/display solidarity, care, or concern.
All of the tyranny that we are ALL enduring could have been avoided if you could've deconstructed your anti-Blackness and STOPPED striving to be placed under the umbrella of whiteness. But you couldn't. You believe that if you are placed at the base of whiteness, you will gain protection....history says, you will NOT. You will be the cannon fodder thrown out to protect the descendants of the creators of the racial hierarchy. They have ZERO desire to share their leverage/privilege with you.
In conclusion, rally the services of the great white hope that you admire so dearly. Have them prove that they want you. Finally, show us that you are wanted at the "cool kids table". 😏
Sincerely,
The 92%💖💙
