Act like brothas Bayard Rustin and James Baldwin didn't exist CNN analyst white girl marrying brehs.

agree.

the Jackie Robinson disrespect

the amnesia about James Baldwin

the amnesia about the Omar character from The Wire

I'm a little mad at myself for not thinking of how disrespectful it was to Baldwin.

My pops wasn't cool around gay people (not homophobic, but like most people born in the 50s, it just unsettled him), but he made sure I knew who James Baldwin was, and respected his legacy as a writer.

Breh was crazy off base with that statement.
