This is what internalised racism looks like. She was raised to believe that her people didn’t suffer oppression and is embarrassed by the truths of our past. But as an equalities minister she cannot inflict her own unchecked biases to an entire nation. https://twitter.com/bbcpolitics/status/1332610960616525828

She sounds like those people who distant themselves from those of us who are products of slavery and colonialism. Her family were not enslaved so she rejects any association of oppression with her ‘Blackness’. She’s not a ‘typical’ Black person.

If she was taught history from a Nigerian perspective correctly she would’ve learned about the bad Black people who sold her fellow Nigerians to the bad white people who transported them to the America’s. She wouldn’t separate her own legacy from that uncomfortable truth.

But she won’t because she’s dishonest. She has a European name because she married well not because her ancestors were born into bondage.

Boris must’ve rubbed his hands when he met her, a Black woman who would be his mouth piece and avoid being called racist. His wet dream.

I truly hope someone gets close enough to teach her the truth about herself before she self destructs.

Black Tory MPs believe they are showing the world what Black people could be if they worked hard, disparaging the rest of us in the process.

We can’t even pray for them.
