Do you think Black people in the US would be interested in a study comparing the situation of Catalans in the greater context of Spain to that of Black people in the greater context of the US?

(It would of course be highly nuanced and acknowledge those things that are not comparable at all between Catalans and Black ppl in the US. But Catalans have their own language/culture/history, and have suffered much oppression of all those things. They also understand their own culture plus the broader culture, the way (many/most/nearly all?) Black people in the US have an innate understanding of their own culture as well as general US culture. Catalans also deal with the same bullshit of idiots on national TV telling them how they are, how bad they all are, what they need to do, etc, from people alleging expertise because their sister-in-law is Catalan, or that "some of their best friends are Catalans, BUT..." and all that bullshit.)
