13403909, We need to distinguish between black phenotype and black politics/culture
Posted by Brotha Sun, Thu Sep-17-20 11:25 AM
Which is why binlahab's crusade for describing black americans as upper B "Black" makes so much sense. Our phenotype and culture are vast and synonymous with each other.

There's people who have black phenotype but were raised in a culture that was devoid of blackness. it influences their politics, and not in a good way (Obama and Kamala)

There's people whose black features are more...subdued, but they were still raised as black, they acknowledge their privilege, and will go hard for black people.

The latter black folk deserve way more space than the former, because the kamalas and obamas are far more sinister.


With that being said, shaun kings shady for reasons that have nothing to do with his blackness. He has used his platform to bully black people that questioned him, he has a history of escalating conflict with black women and threatening to involve the law. Thats suspect as hell.
