Ilhan Omar has been through worse than most of us can imagine.
She came to us as a child seeking refuge from *war* and these pricks think they can scare her off with ugly words.
She's made of sterner stuff than that. #TheSquad is made of sterner stuff than that.
And so are we. twitter.com/ilhanmn/…
This is a textbook example of how white supremacy operates on the left.
The degree to which we are effective against American fascism is tied to how well white activists accept leadership from PoC. Coalition building means joining impacted people, not the other way around. twitter.com/kristinm…
Whenever I watch these rallies and see literally not one PoC behind Trump, I know that there are no PoCs in the crowd at all. If there were, they'd have put them behind him.
It's a crowd of 100% white people.
Just so we're clear about whose responsibility this is. twitter.com/keithboy…
I notice not one woman of color among them.
Trump has some men of color supporters and some white women supporters.
But aside from Diamond and Silk and Candace O, I have never seen a Black woman who supports Trump. twitter.com/elizland…
