The mistreatment of Blacks in this country has always made us targets for recruitment by the enemies of America. No different than other ethnic or religious minorities around the world. I.e. The Kurds in Syria and Iran. This often exascerbates matters for the recruited group.
In Russia it’s Chechens. In China its Uighurs. Black people have a tendency of believing we are the only people subjected to inequality or injustices in the world. The consistent problem for all such groups is a lack of POWER. They are also USUALLY very poor and outnumbered.
As a Black man I’m wary of ANY movement funded from abroad. Desperate duplicitous Negroes seeking easy money from abroad will promote all types of catastrophic self serving nonsense. Black Panther, Eldridge Cleaver tried to spark race riots in America while living in Algeria.
What we as a group have to understand is NOBODY is going to give us anything for FREE. Often the price is so high you’re better off just earning it for yourself. In Vietnam “Hanoi Hannah” targeted black soldiers by reminding them they fought for a country that persecuted them.
Hanoi Hannah was not lying, but she nor the Vietcong cared about our plight - only their own. Her message reached blacks in America like Muhammad Ali who famously said, “No Vietcong ever called me Nigger.” That statement has impacted Black attitude to military service ever since.
Now it’s Palestine and immigrants stuck at the border. I say fuck Em all. Whenever I hear about our “allies” all I think this is just the latest group to exploit us before passing us off to the next. No one will give us what we cannot give ourselves. Intersectionality is a sham.
