The short answer is yes; pro-black must mean anti-yt... in a functional way. Let me explain.
I have seen the training of young Afrikan boys and girls pertaining to their Afrikan culture and rituals but still grow up to have European tastes and desired European “ideals”. https://twitter.com/Gjing_superman/status/1347153990182707201

If those European tastes, behaviours, and passions are not also transformed in particular directions, despite their superficial attachment to Afrikan culture, they will continue their oppression and maintain the system that they think they are trying to get out from.
Look at the honourable Elijah Muhammad. Sometimes we are so “right” brained that we let our dislike and disapproval of certain of his behaviours overshadow our capacity to see what gifts he brought to Afrikans abroad in America and also here at home in Afrika.
Elijah Muhammed recognised that cultural and religious identity were as political as they were psychological. THEY WERE ALSO AS ECONOMICAL AS THEY WERE PSYCHOLOGICAL. So, he realised that he had to change the tastes, interests, emotions and feelings of black people.
Here's the important part: A big part of how he brought about that change was the projection of the “YT MAN IS DEMON” mythology. IT WAS A VERY FUNCTIONAL MYTHOLOGY.
Here's the rationale behind it: IF YOU DEMONISE THE YT MAN, YOU WEAN YOUR PEOPLE FROM THINGS EUROPEAN or YT
Here's the rationale behind it: IF YOU DEMONISE THE YT MAN, YOU WEAN YOUR PEOPLE FROM THINGS EUROPEAN or YT
He created new tastes, interests and ideals for which Afrikans could produce. Producing for their own nation, and economically supporting their own nation. Keeping their wealth. All of that was achievable through the “yt men is demon” or anti-yt mythology.
So, the anti-yt mythology has it's place and function if you are trying to wean Afrikans from the pursuit of European ideals and if you are trying to economically empower them. Instead of buying Nike kicks, etc, they now buy black.
You get the point.
