Ladies and gentlemen, the dumbest person on the planet, Donald Trump.
Ladies and gentlemen, the dumbest person on the planet, Donald Trump.
Well I didn’t say whites are entitled to become indigenous, I said they earn their place by joining the anticolonial struggle and materially betraying whiteness. It’s not enough to just performatively be an ally, they need to actually sacrifice and put themselves at risk through active resistance and assistance.
They also never really earn their place until the struggle is done. Every white person has to continually betray whiteness, because of the material reality that they’re more likely than anyone else in the struggle to be informants or undercover cops. I certainly recognize it’s not as simple as being an “ally” and requires real material sacrifice.
In settler-majority countries specifically the dividing of whites against non-whites is an active project that continues to this day, it has to be maintained by constant moneyed and state intervention to elevate whites that are loyal to whiteness and suppress whites that betray it, and in the United States specifically they historically kill and imprison Black and Indigenous leaders that try to make multiracial coalitions.
But those are just my thoughts. I’m hardly an expert in the anticolonial struggle, though I’m not only influenced by Fanon. I’m also influenced by Huey P. Newton and Walter Rodney.
So. Got any books you recommend?
