this all boils down to folks having low self esteem and being too cowardly to divest from american politics as it currently stands.
millions of Black ppl were so hype to get rid of bush that they voted in clinton who ushered in a crime bill that would destory their families for generations and generations to come.
Black ppl were so caught up in the symbolism of a clinton presidency (HES MOVING TO HARLEM WITH THE BLACKS!!) and a goddamn saxophone they couldnt even see countless fathers, mothers, sisters, daughters, sons, community members, vanishing from their neighborhoods in a blink of an eye
so *boom* niggas sat and watched the documentary “13th” right? and were outraged that they allowed this to happen. i mean post after post about how fucked up mass incarceration is and how saddened they were at the fact ppl didnt think critically about what was in that bill ☹☹☹☹☹
fast foward *2020* we have one of the inventors of the fucking crime bill ??? and a fucked cop who spent her career locking up Black and brown mothers and refusing to release innocent Black ppl from jail, now frontrunners of the democratic party
two knuckleheads that literally bought into and profited handsomely from mass incarceration
and like lambs to the slaughter, Black folks are hype over the fact she went to an HBCU ??pledged AKA (which didnt stop her from harming Black women) and is 1 and 1 teaspoon Black (el oh fucking el)
this sounds way too familiar??
damn history really does repeat itself
.....dont it?
