we're not talking about white violence against Black men
love how Will Smith's Blackness *and* Jada's Blackness is being erased here to defend a guy whose LOLs we crave
love how you’re erasing assault against a black man on television!
by a black man!!!!!
normalizing the assault & oppression of black men, by thomas jefferson or clarence thomas, is not ok. never took you for a reactionary
I honestly don't think Will smacking Chris Rock is "normalizing the oppression of Black men" but OK
flatten the complex of racial dynamics by invoking celebrity. now who is the class reductionist
my point is that Black men don't further the oppression of other Black men; but they can further the oppression of Black women and that is the only power differential in effect here

I feel like this is what happens when people are
trying to make things about race rather than seeing actual racism. But what do I know?

Incredible thread. 53 pages in only 3 days. Wow!
By the way that Will Smith thing was total scripted to create buzz around an otherwise dead Oscars. You fools have obviously taken the bait.

you do know that "class reductionist" means something specific, right? it doesn't just mean you can write short sentences
