US Black and Palestinian Solidarity

Don't Get Played by Empire

00:01 Just tapping in to say that the CIA is scrolling on they phone, on they belly with they feet kicked up, twirling they hair watching y'all d o they work for them? Dear God, hey, they is giggling and s niggling child watching y'all do the work of destroying Black and Palestinian solidarity all by yourself. Let me preface everything I'm about to say by saying, "It does not matter whether Palestinians are anti-Black or not, they don't deserve to be genocided. You know!?

00:30 Black and Palestinian solidarity goes all the way back to the C ivil Rights Movement, whether it is Malcolm X's views on Palestinian liberation, whether it's a Black Panther Party that 60% of Black people said they were proud of at the time, or 46% of black people also said the Black Panther Party represented their values and their views. These people were anti-imperialist and they were pro-Palestinian liberation. And it's because the same school of thought that says that "Black people deserve to die because of insert- bullshit- reason- here" is the same school of thought that is bringing y'all to say that because Palestinians are quote unquote "anti-Black", we shouldn't care about their lives.

01:11 It's the same mindset and it's sick. Culture influences politics. It is not a mistake that they are literally putting into the cultural understanding that Palestinians do not deserve solidarity. Because they know that our solidarity as Black and Palestinian people is powerful and it is threatening to US hegemony, period.

01:34 If we live in a world where it is okay to literally exterminate a marginalized group of people, then not a single marginalized person on this Earth stands a chance against the Empire, period. Your rights cannot be built on the backs of the suffering of other people because at the end of the day, as long as those people are dehumanized, so are we. As long as those people are free, we are not living in a liberated society. Period. This is the last little thing I'm gonna say. This is the last little thing I'm gonna say, but y'all are more mad at people that are advocating against genocide than y'all are about the actual institutions and systems of fascism of this country's built upon.
