Nate Parker isn’t really interested in equity; he’s interested in privileging black masculinity and himself. It’s really ugly and I’m not here for it. If your pro-Blackness isn’t pro-woman, pro-queer, pro-trans, pro-disability, it is NOT pro-Blackness; you just want to oppress as you yourself were oppressed.
