Especially when she asks a question like "Why would you want to segregate
cultures and races and things like this?"
Such a loaded question, Iggy. Look at the history of America (and the history
of this land before it was called "America"). There was a time during the early
part of the century when we were thriving in many ways. One of the biggest
examples is Black Wall Street which destroyed by white folks by dynamite from
a plane, because they ain't wanna see black folks thriving. We buy into the
illusion of inclusion only to STILL be getting murdered in the streets like animals
(Mike Brown, John Crawford III, Eric Garner, the list goes on).

Beyond that though, and more to the point, our inventions have been taken
for CENTURIES. Understand? Centuries. Ask yourself why a black man would
be drawing BLUEPRINTS for the likes of Bell and Edison. How can anyone do that
except the inventor? Nobody wanna tell you we created mathematics and
taught Aristotle and them. Or that all the Holy images were black until the pope
made Michaelangelo paint a European version of them. People lightening the
skin of the people in hieroglyphics. Why? Because they don't want you do know
we invented this shit. And people can yell "It doesn't matter who invented
it or what they looked like!" If that's the case, then why are they going
through so much trouble to pretend we didn't invent it? That's the real issue.
More recently, they don't want you do know we invented Rock & Roll. Next
is Hip Hop. We're just tired of that. However, if you get enough black folks
who don't give a shit like a "BrooklynWHAT" for instance, it'll be easy to do.
There is a very obvious agenda against black folks and our inventions and
contributions to the world... at least against our getting credit for them, and
it continues.
If black people buy into this idea that it doesn't matter and "we are all one"
rhetoric, it just makes it much easier to enact this agenda that has always
been present and remains present today.
