Men who have simple answers to very complex situations are never to be trusted.
I find Kwanzaa to be a more relatable holiday than the Muslim ones that many in East Africa, where Swahili is largely spoken, follow. There’s something about liberating about the syncretisms of the African in the Americas that is simply not present in the wholesale relocation of African cultures such as my own.
But those black men are happy to collect them checks, aren’t they?
typically a “bitch is cray” stance that gets thrown out there when it comes to minority stories coming out of sexual harrassment
The Alabamian Constitution wasn’t shy about admitting its Afrophobic positions (it is from this wonderfully white legal tradition someone like Moore would hail from).
