    I actually have a Black-led, Black-issue-focused organization to clique up with now, rather than spending another five years getting talked over by “we don’t have a race problem in this country”-assed white Amerikans. Forever a plus in my books; I don’t intend to go back.

        Ain’t that always the case in this fuck of a region. Crackers prefer a frozen, ossified, negative peace. Me and mine prefer liberation; and that is the chief contradiction in Amerika.

            i’m aware and i made my comment because yours is in sound-bite-able form.

            this part of mlk jr’s message is easy to ignore because of its somewhat antiquated/stuffy prose and maga has educated all of us of the effectiveness of easy to digest soundbites in american political discourse.

                degrasse tyson is not better than einstein and paul wasn’t the son of god; they understood the message and made it amenable to their respective generations.
