Militarized fascism
at home and abroad
And the US populace
continues to sleepwalk
Can’t just blame politicians.
Taking the true measure
of this crisis begins with
facing the fact that most Americans won’t willingly surrender a single imperial privilege.
They’ll yield all their rights first.

White America is STILL reeling from the first ever Black president. That’s so wild to me.
Everything we are seeing in the U.S. now—particularly, white people’s blatant selection of a Christian White Nationalist policy platform and president—can be traced directly to Barack Obama’s election.

In this openly anti-Black society,
IF you are not clearly and consistently pro-Black,
THEN you are anti-Black.
IF you are not pro-Black, THEN you are part of the status quo designed to antagonize and subjugate Black people.
It’s long past time to choose. 🇺🇸
