I am not a fan of how y'all are idolizing Stacy Abrams, especially white folk.
I see how y'all are trying to erase the emphasis of community organizing.
I see how y'all are trying to lay down y'alls burdens down on her.
She is not your Black messiah or your mammy, she is a Black woman, community organizer, & a politician.
The current approach of giving her praise has the stank of white supremacy all over it.

And it reads the same as how y'all platformed Obama with uncritical praise.

*emphasis on politician*
