#Black Lives Matter Global

[afriblaq]

Did you know that white people make up only 7% of the global population? This thought-provoking question was raised by Yaya, a biracial woman, in a viral social media video. She shared her surprise that so many people, herself included, were unaware of this fact. Yaya reflected on how such a small percentage holds disproportionate global influence, stressing that white supremacy persists not because the numbers support it, but because it is actively allowed. Her video sparked widespread conversations about power, privilege, and representation. If Black people are the global majority, how can African people, both on the continent and in the diaspora, unite to dismantle white supremacy and build a more equitable future?

What's your opinion on men of color and George Floyd?

I don’t have any specific opinion on men of color. They‘re oppressed on the axis of race/ethnicity, which doesn’t change the fact that they‘re not exempt from being misogynistic and oppress women. It‘s also not a secret that many of them are extremely violent towards women of color although they experience the same racism on top of misogyny, and towards women in general, although most people don’t dare to say it out loud.

George Floyd is a victim of racist police violence, and what was done to him is definitely a tragedy and big injustice. The public outcry is justified, for sure. No one should be discriminated, abused or get murdered for their skin colour.

As a person, however, he certainly wasn’t someone to look up to, so he‘s not a "hero". After all, he held a pregnant woman at gunpoint (even if she wasn’t pregnant, that‘s typical male violence) and surely was misogynistic in one way or another on top of it as well.

Michelle Salzman, a republican from Florida called for the GENOCIDE of ALL Palestinians.

I would like to call for her to be terminated from the Florida House of Representatives.

She is CLEARLY an EVIL and DANGEROUS woman if she can call for the DEATHS of 2.2 MILLION brown people.

if someone was calling for the Genocide of ALL Israelis I;m SURE this woman would be calling them evil/anti-semetic, etc. But bc they are Brown, bc they are Arab, and Muslim people feel perfectly fine with calling for their deaths. Because they are RESISTING they're own murder, bc they are calling for DECOLONIZATION, they are the evil ones in the eyes of the White Western World.

I BEG you ALL to look past the White and Western Centric views we've grown up with and view BROWN and BLACK people as yours to love and protect and care for! Wether Muslim, or Christian, or Jewish! Even when they dont blindly and mindlessly comply with authority, because they dont deserve to die just because they didn't roll over or beg like a dog!

if you agree with Michelle Salzmen then I really DO NOT welcome you on my page!

Do we need a reset?

Mississippi Burning is a beautiful and horrifying movie, and not for the faint of heart. It is one of a few non-horror movies in existence that upset me so badly I had to cover my eyes to make it through a scene. The only other time that happened is when I watched the remake of The Girl With Dragon Tattoo during the rape scene. There were no rape scenes in Mississippi Burning -- it was simply a brutally honest portrayal of white supremacy in the American South.

If you're able to look past the usage of racist slurs and the violence this movie is absolutely worth the watch. The cinematography is amazing, and the director does an amazing job of portraying the beauty of Mississippi beneath all of the bloodshed and of humanizing the supporting cast of Southerners, both white and Black. We get to see both the good and the bad sides. The soundtrack is taught and beautiful, and keeps you on the edge of your seat.

There are no good people in this movie, but I think Gene Hackman's character is the true hero of the story. I think this is a movie that everyone should watch at least once. I think it should be shown in history classes. It is necessary viewing.

If you would like to watch the movie it is streaming for free on Tubi, and has been edited to allot for commercial breaks. Please keep in mind, however, that there are graphic depictions of violence and racist slurs used throughout the film. I would not recommend it to anyone under the age of fourteen.
