Kanye West 'explains' his 'Slavery was a choice' statement
- Thread starter Flywin Lannister
- Start date
Slavery was a system, more complex than telling someone they were not free, less than whites, to work and then believing it.
Too many of us are misinformed and ignorant of not only the atrocities and controls of slavery but how many of the tactics are still used now.
He isn’t right at all and people co-signing him, seeing his point or juelzing for him is what makes what he said all the more problematic.

If only the slaves would’ve had boots to pull themselves up from the straps on them

Yeah mentally free but physically slaves
Ideas snowball through the generations. The thought of freedom for one could be the act of freedom by another.
As an African American...when the fukk was this?
I can't take anyone's babble seriously when they so clearly lack any basic knowledge of what they speak, yet arrogantly pontificate as if the cowsht they spew forth is edifying and enlightening to us unwashed masses enshrouded in the darkness of our pitiable ignorance.

Turner and Vesey weren't so ignorant to not realize they did not in fact have numbers on their side in VA and SC.
They also both (all 3 actually) realized they were in relatively privileged positions that afforded them the opportunity to look beyond the daily struggle to stay alive and the access to even minute resources others would never even be exposed to the existence of.
None were arrogant enough to think they were the only ones fighting or that their brethren had simply passively accepted their degraded conditions. They realized the importance of time and place, knowledge and resources, circumstance and luck.
They'd also question this man who never even struggled by his era/society standards denigrating millions whose sorrows and complexities and triumphs his narrow experience and lack of intellectual curiosity could ever fathom.
They'd dismiss this megalomaniac presuming he measures up to the smallest enslaved child's covert resistance to a horrific system...
much less themselves.
this dude is basically a Coli Hotep
Thinking he's smarter than everyone else
