    Does Anyone watch Breaking Brown on Monday and Wednesday. It's probably the most insightful form of receiving information for African Americans who are descendents of American Slavery. Outside of reading actually books

    I apprieciate how she focus on the needs and perspective of only African Americans. It's definitely one of the reasons I hate the term People of color, or the groupings/pairing of immigrant groups with African American's. It erases our struggle and lineage in this country

    Your last paragraph is many volumes of truth. You see that issue’s truth in how, for forty years, Black Americans have been herded into the “POC” camp by leftists when most of these other ethnic groups don’t want to be associated with us ... after they’ve used our struggles and initiatives to climb over us. We are not all the same. Example: affirmative action, where blacks see it as a needed doorstop to get into academia at times, and Asians see it as an unnatural bar to their numbers and ascension.

    It’s why I even bristle at the term “African American”. I would be no more accepted or wanted on the continent, especially as a gay/bi rationalist black American, than Chinese or Europeans (if anything, way less so). As Wanda Sykes said in an old routine, it’s not like there was a commando organization of Black Africans trying to save us during 400 years of slavery, “pssst, brother, over here, we come to take you back to dee mudderland” lol

    We are Romulans not Vulcans... (analogy nod to @Cyrus-Brooks )

    Thanks @NewAfrikan for posting this. I subscribed Yvette Carnell's channel. She hits the nail on the head in the videos you posted here. I also agree with @Rico and have said similar things in the past on CA and on other internet platforms. The funny thing is I've been called a "racist" for calling POC solidarity bullshit and pointing out the anti-black racism and the upholding of white supremacy by non-black POC. Which is why I said and will continue to say black people should only be concerned with our issues and interests fuck everyone else. These non-black POC have gotten over co-opting our struggle for their own gain while black Americans and black people worldwide are still at the bottom of the racial hierarchy. The only part I disagree with is compartmentalizing this to just the American context. Anti-blackness is a worldwide system. Britain, France, Germany, Belgium, Spain, and Portugal have benefited from slavery and colonialism and exported this system of race based exploitation to the western hemisphere. Arabs are also just as guilty as whites of enslaving and committing atrocities against (black)African people. I think black Americans, Afro-Caribbean, Afro-Latin, black people living in European countries and black people on the continent of Africa need to learn to put our differences and petty beefs aside and focus our anger on our common enemy. To defeat the defeat and ultimately conquer our opponents we as black people have to work together on a global level since the system that oppresses us is not restricted to single country but is global in scope. For black Americans our challenge is unique because we don't have the numbers or the firepower force our will against the majority population and the non-black immigrants. So we've got to fight using more covert and passive-aggressive tactics.

    Oh the stories I could tell you about my personal experience with Arab racism, at home and abroad. And don’t forget those mother fuckers still enslave black people in Sudan and other places. I remember Farrakhan and Jesse Jackson trying to defend that third world POC solidarity shit on the issue of black slavery in Sudan back in 1996 (both of them have been on the take apologists for Arabs forever). Then NBC Dateline embarrassed these two loud mouthed “black leaders” by showing how easy it was to buy black slaves in the Clinton era. It still goes on to this day there, Yemen and other places.

    Ultimately idiots like Malcolm X and others are to blame for this POC solidarity bullshit. Hell, Muslims and Arabs are the originators of the black slave trade, European Christians just took it over and perfected the practice.

    Watch her past episode too. She goes in on everyone's problematic behavior towards African Americans who are descendents of American Slavery. I appreciate that she bases her arguments off of data and conspiracy like alot of other people. When people call in for the 2nd half is always the best part.

    Check this episode out
