My sister and I have decided to watch this season’s Love is Blind without seeing who the contestants are. I have dimmed my laptop all the way down so my screen is black. My sister put a blanket over her TV. We are one and half episodes in and we are sharing our notes.

We need to regulate the sale of microphones. Maybe a theory and practical test before you can purchase, own or use a microphone.
Because right now Black people in the UK are catching strays because one person decided to share their asinine views on Kendrick’s performance.

After yesterday’s episode of #TheTraitorsUK it is clear that some of the contestants wanted to punish Kas for being an intelligent and kind non-white doctor.
There was an air of wanting the “bring him down a peg or two”
And Kas 100% clocked that BS.

I definitely want to write some more words about the racist/sexist weaponisation of intelligence and kindness on shows like #TheTraitors.

And I am being deliberately vague when I say “someone” because the racial and gender identity of the person who started the discussion is now a central theme.
Folks are debating whether biracial people with white mothers and Black fathers can claim
Blackness.

Someone got on TikTok and labelled #BeyonceBowl American propaganda. TWO WEEKS later and the discourse is still ongoing. It has taken both predictable and unexpected turns. Online friendships have been severed.
Have folks forgotten bell hooks called Bey a terrorist and the world didn’t end?

Caught up with #TheTraitorsUK.
I can’t overstate how uncomfortable it was to watch Kasim being accused of being a traitor because he is a doctor.
And Kasim 100% clocked what they really meant.

This is such an immigrant household thing too. What a terrible message and legacy. We all deserve rest.

Ever since I saw that Australian woman “dance” at the Olympics (and especially after listening to her explain why she “danced” the way she did) I have been interested in learning more about her academic work.

I really am not a fan of “I can’t believe [insert oppressions] is still happening in [insert current year]” type statements.
Especially when made by people who aren’t subjected to the oppressions they are speaking about.

Today, in Uber making my way home from Liverpool town centre. Driving past The Docks, stop at traffic lights. Uber guy rolls down window to speak to Cabbie (London style taxi driver). Cabbie ask Uber guy,
“Were you down here [The Docks] on Saturday?
The Docks, on Sat, where the racists converged.
