As a Black American, disgusted doesn’t even begin to describe how I feel about other Black people weaponizing our identity against Palestinians in service of liberal politicians whose role it is to govern the most anti-Black empire in history.

A vote for the Democratic Party is not a vote against fascism, a vote for harm reduction, or a vote for our so-called rights in this country. That vote is a vote against colonized people around the world, including ourselves, the African diaspora in the United States.

Those that you deride as “watermelon people” are your brothers and sisters, your co-strugglers. Since October, Arabs and especially Palestinians both within and without the United States have been at the forefront of the struggle for our collective liberation, not just their own.

We do a disservice to ourselves when we attack Arabs and Palestinians in exchange for illusory concessions from the ruling class. Dividing the movement for our collective liberation does nothing for Africans here or abroad. It’s time to stop deluding ourselves otherwise.

After everything Palestinians have lost since October and also after everything they have contributed, we owe them our respect and solidarity. Our freedom and theirs depends on it.

Palestinians aren’t Africans, but the point is clear. We must recognize the chauvinism that continues to plague our community, combat it, and allow Palestinians to teach us in this moment.

In 1961, discussing Black American chauvinism toward Africans, W.E.B. Du Bois wrote, “American Negroes of former generations had always calculated that when Africa was ready for freedom, American Negroes would be ready to lead them. But the event was quite opposite.”

SO AFTER THE GREAT PALESTINIAN REVOLT OF 1936, THE BRITISH WERE FORCED TO THE ESTABLISH AN INDEPENDENT PALESTINE WITHIN 10 YEARS. BUT A TERROR CAMPAIGN BY ZIONIST MILITIAS FORCED THEM TO RESCIND THE POLICY AND WITHDRAW FROM PALESTINE. YOU SHOULD READ THE WHITE PAPER OF 1939.

@asster_oid @yalewifi history is for sure the move. it’s flexible, most of the classes in my concentration (empires/colonialism) are also er&m, you only need 10 classes, and you have minimal contact with men/white people

@sillistruggling because emotions are a feature of creation. if we were to think that god has emotions, we would be associating characteristics of creation with the creator. it would be the same as thinking that god has a gender or a race

@sillistruggling i would think about this in he context of the ninety nine names of god. he is الودود (the loving one) but we wouldn’t say he experiences love. or he is الصبور (the patient one) but we wouldn’t say he has the capacity to be patient, we would say he is patience
