All these non-ADOS POC crying on the internet because ADOS want justice get me hot.
Everytime I go on YouTube, I gotta see someone who just got here a last week, if we wanna talk about the history of African descended people in the USA on a timeline, crying about ADOS.
ADOS fought in the American Revolutionary War. They just go here. How do they feel like they have the right to comment on anything? I could understand if the ADOS movement was about deportations or genocide but it is about reparations and maintaining an ethnic group.
Just because we are all the same race, doesn't mean we belong to each other. Doesn't mean we just can be uninformed and uninvested and say whatever about each other.
I would not just speak on Apartheid South Africa and I wouldn't move to South Africa and reap the benefits of the South African struggle for freedom and then express my opinion on South African politics and what they do for their people.
South Africans fought hard and died and killed for my American ass to just walk around and enjoy South Africa. Even if I went to London, or Paris or Brazil, I would have the same respect because, in all honesty, I am quite ignorant on Afro-Brazilian and Black Brit and Black French life and their history of struggle and I am not going to disrespect it.
The only reason why Black immigrants are Black is because they leave their majority Black countries and get hit with dealing with White folks.
They are Black because they came here. ADOS is Black because they were brought here. The boat ride that ADOS ancestors took was the manufacturing of Blackness. Being a descendant of Sub-Saharan Africa was not frowned upon until the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade happened. Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade was the foundation of White Supremacy because White people had cognitive dissonance about the Enlightenment philosophy they were spreading.
How can White merchants talk about the equality of humankind and freedom while having West African slaves? Easy, call them out their names, and say they are cursed with Blackness and they are not really humans but some kind of mutant primate species and they are dangerous to White society thus we need to keep them as slaves. That's what the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade did to descendants of Africa worldwide. That's those West African Slave Traders did to everyone out of greed. That's what White people did to everyone.
The Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade just did not hurt descendants of slaves.
Black isn't a race it is a caste status. People tried to make a legit biological marker but it's not one. It's a caste status. Being White is a caste status.
ADOS is trying to undo that status in the country of their birth. We are going back to the original sin and saying people need to be held accountable for this.
White Americans are not going to escape from what their forefather and foremothers did to us and West Africa is not going to escape either.
Instead of being inspired to hold the French, the British, the Dutch, the Spanish, the Germans accountable, these people want to keep the status quo because they know that our curse of being designated Black is a blessing for them. Europeans are the reason why they can't go home, why their families are torn apart, why their countries poor. We hope all DOS and colonized people get their justice.
The correct response is to be like, "Damn, ADOS really holding White America accountable, we should do the same to our colonizers and enslavers."
The Caribbeans been had a reparations movement going. Certain African peoples recently got reparations. We ain't trying to stop them, it is a shame what happened to them.
But ADOS detractors are online talking slick about Black Americans, as if we owe them or the race anything.
They left where they are a majority to be a minority in a minority. They left their homes to become Black. They jumped in the belly of the beast, the most cutthroat hyper-capitalist, White Supremacist country in the world.
I wonder why? I'll answer it. Because ADOS made the USA the best place for Black people to become financially successful even though it is one of the most unjust countries and unequal countries in the world. Ella Mai came over here and admitted ain't shyt there for her in England and couldn't get put on in her home country. But newsflash, ADOS ancestors did not slave away so Black immigrants can come here and benefit to the detriment of ADOS. We let White people do it to us because we had no choice, we got a choice now and we are saying no to everyone, not just Black immigrants, to all immigrants, to Whites, to Latinos, to Asians and we suggest all African descendant people to do the same in their countries of origin.
Do not become a guest in your homeland, it's a quick path to poverty and a slow walk to genocide.
Shout to allies that understand that this is not about them but about the justice and survival of an indigenous American ethnic group. Hopefully in 50 years, we'll be at an international court and taking the enslavers and colonizers to task for their crime against humanity and making sure slavery and colonization never happens again, in any form.
