Title: "black excellence is a trap."
Post by: ATLien on May 30, 2021, 12:46:56 PM
the way she slayed me from the beginning to the end of the video.
i honestly never in my life. insanely articulate
like seriously, she's on some next level shit with her speech.

and what's even more impressive is that she lays all this down while she's beating her face :plzstop:

she digs into the way the phrase is used, and when it's used
and makes a lot of great points

depending on the context , a phrase that is used to uplift black people can actually be pretty anti-black.
again.....sometimes. depending on the context

she's way more sophisticated than the copy/paste woke gorls IMO

like she really thinks outside of the box and u can tell the concern she has is genuine
she's not just pulling mess out of her ass.

there's definitely a LOT of anti-Blackness lying under a lot of what's uplifted as "excellence"

because when something steps outside of those expectations it's "ghetto" or "hood" or "classless".
many of those who uphold these "excellence" standards look down on Black people who don't meet them.
