But before that, you should read James Baldwin, Michelle Alexander, Cornell West, Ta-Nehisi Coates, Angela Davis, George Lipsitz, Eduardo Bonilla-Silva...

I’m not scapegoating him, I’m not accusing him of anything that he isn’t saying.

Yeah man I’m just obsessed with his books rn I’ve about read all of them. I think what he is saying should be taken very seriously as it seems to be a pervasive problem. I can chill tho lmao I doubt the guy is really looking at what he’s saying from that angle
