you can't see the privilege in that statement right there? I said read a black female academians book and you thought it was funny.

I'm for the uplift of the black community as a whole. I never have saw our sisters as a threat, so why would I care that they speak up for issues that pertain to them? Supporting pro-black females is something I believe in.

I'd rather read Southern Horrors: Lynch Law in All Its Phases by Ida B. Wells for the 17th time a book by Bell Hooks.

whatever, bruh. these black feminist are once again aligning themselves with white females to create legislation against black men (that will also be used against them) i'm not trynna hear the kumbuya talk cus non of us are "anti-black females"
Just by what you said right there, they are not real black feminists breh. You cannot be a BLACK feminist and support initiatives that target members of our community.

I agree with you though

Nobody would have laughed if you mentioned a book by Frances Cress Welsing

Has nothing to do with Bell Hooks being a black woman... has everything to do with her being a gender baiting idiot

Her suggestion is that we fear the police who for sincherys have beaten us and killed us. I'm sorry but only a fool would support a black person who says some bullshyt like that.

I think some of them have some personal issues too that comes out in their rhetoric. Especially with us as black men as they judge us collectively and not individually.

It just bothers me and saddens me as a black man who treats black women with nothing but the respect and dignity they deserve say things like they wouldn't care if we were gunned down in the streets by racist white cops...or that all we do is chase white women...or that we can't do anything for ourselves...Y'all know I would never throw shade at black women. At all. I come from a family of majority black women...so? That's where my understanding of women comes from. But my understanding of the black struggle on a global scale came from my pops.

That anger and hostility is just...really disappointing. They don't realize white racists get off on seeing us divided and derriding members of our own race for their entertainment and undeserved ego boost. Those types would even repeat these sentiments as fact.

Angela Davis was against the proliferation of the prison industrial complex because she realized what a detriment it was becoming with incarceration rates for black men and how it would hurt the community. So what are current day black feminists really doing to make an impact on the black community other than sell wolf tickets, repeat themselves, contradict themselves, and just tweet all day?

YOUOKSIS....which in concept is all well and good...is just not it. It's another facet of putting more money in the pockets of privatized prison owners and the continued proliferation of the prison industrail complex.

Sad to say we're dismantling our own progress.

How many of these women do you really think are active in the community? How many of these women do you think are a part of organizations that are fighting on behalf of black women? I know plenty of black women who are active in the community who consider themselves Black feminists and they respect and date black men. The last thing we need to do is hold the entire collective responsible for loud and uninformed voices on social media. These women don't speak for the Black women I know and associate with and they shouldn't for you either.

But the one thing I have rallied against as of late is people speaking on issues in the community who haven't earned their opinion. We live in the age of Social media revolution where people are more comfortable fighting causes from their computer than fighting them in real life. Why do you ask? Because there's nothing to lose. There is nothing to lose in typing rants and hate filled messages anonymously on the internet. But you do stand to lose when you put yourself out there for your cause and you're willing to see it though no matter what it costs. That takes more gumption than posting memes on facebook and instagram. Mention the names of Angela Davis, Patricia Hill Collins, and Bell Hooks and these women wouldn't have a clue.

We need to stop these tit for tat exchanges with people like this and start to question them on their credentials for why they believe they deserve a platform to speak on community issues.
