@hyphy_republic@rezaaslan@Remroum It helps change the perception, but does nothing to change the facts on the ground.

@rezaaslan@AdilRajaa1@Remroum I'm not convinced the two go hand in hand. Racists didn't suddenly become unracist cuz of Poitier./ -
@hyphy_republic@AdilRajaa1@Remroum no but middle america saw apartheid for the first time -
@rezaaslan@hyphy_republic@Remroum US public opinion did not end Apartheid in South Africa. -
@AdilRajaa1@hyphy_republic@Remroum it led to pressure on congress which led to pressure on S Africa which led to end of Apartheid -
@rezaaslan@hyphy_republic@Remroum Do you honestly believe that? -
@AdilRajaa1@hyphy_republic@Remroum yes. for better or worse America is still most powerful and influential nation on earth. -
@rezaaslan@hyphy_republic@Remroum I asked if you think it was US public opinion.
