they are the wrong messengers for this but :huhldup:
Its a problem even if they dont see it. Allyship is cool but I need ypipo to believe black voices too.
if non black folks see it as a problem then it’s a problem homie
The answer is a combination of these posts
We need white folks to believe black folks
Let's be real, nothing changes until enough white folks listen to black folks
And then they come along for the ride with black folks
These guys aren't the ones to start the conversation
Which they didn't, we online have
When white people say amongst themselves with no black people present that things are a problem
That is when things MIGHT change
So I'm glad to see this convo and I hope it only gets stronger

i seen the caption before watching the video so initially I thought it was gonna be some nonsense but it wasn’t..crazy bc I was literally saying to my brother yesterday it’s wild how Travis Scott was the first booked talent for WM & their comments on WWE using black culture to promote the product but not having any black talent booked for PLE’s is disingenuous was on point..i only seen it on my TL bc Kazeem reposted

I got tired of having this argument with people and checked out. Hopefully foot on neck season for Hunter Levesque will lead to righting some wrongs. I'm getting back into things for Mania week and then I'm back out until this changes or Mania the next year. Jade and Naomi having a straight up grudge match on a Mania card is a good sign but I need him to move past fetishization of black female excellence into overcoming the fear of black male excellence so the shows can reflect the culture that all modern cultures use to elevate their own.
