  1. Bipartisan Genocide: Don't Blame the Colonized for the Colony's Design

    5 DE NOV.

    Bipartisan Genocide: Don't Blame the Colonized for the Colony's Design

    ...What we finna do come tomorrow? ...especially if the overseer of your choice doesn't win ...will you fear power or contest with it? A hallmark feature of any presidential election in a racist country is the continued psychological warfare against the colonized, especially Black people, who, along with Arab Muslims, will be inevitably blamed, scapegoated or strategically pitted against one another in service of the powers that be, for no other reason than if we were to coalesce our efforts toward our own interests and liberation, that could signal the end of empire and all the symbolism, pomp and circumstance that they hope will keep us distracted and placated. We are living in a lie, a constant paradox: Black people are no better off from the open theft and profiteering of our culture by white people but appropriation masked as "multiculturalism" in the media is at an all time high and judging by the decreasing numbers of Black folks in physical public space in major metropolitan cities, is showing no signs of slowing down (if you can just "be" Black, why would you need Black people?). Record numbers of white people are using tiktok and other technologies to fine tune their mimicry of what they think Blackness is while at the same time decrying we won't be "replaced"; Vanity fair is publishing articles about the "radicalization of america's white young men" and giving a well known white supremacist a whole spread about how wealthy "conservative extremists" are calling themselves "anti-imperialists" in a fake populist rebrand while a privately owned newspaper is upset at its billionaire owner for blocking their presidential endorsement and also regularly publishing Israel centric propaganda around freeing the hostages when there are twice as many or more Palestinians held captive before oct 7? This is sometimes peppered with actual unbiased coverage of the genocide here and there (to some individual writers' credit). The US says it is committed to protecting Ukrainian sovereignty after Russia's attempts to annex their land but not that of the Palestinian people...who also had their land stolen? In 2021, Kamala Harris was quoted saying wars are fought over oil but in a few years it’ll be over water Elon Musk is building what will be the world's largest supercomputer in South Memphis, TN in a predominately Black community and authorities there greenlit the project with no community input or oversight in a part of the city that is currently plagued by a water crisis, replete with lead and other pollutants. This is 3 years after the community started a successful grassroots resistance movement that stopped two companies who were planning to build a major oil pipeline right in the middle of a historic Black neighborhood. They did the bulk of their organizing during and despite of a Trump presidency. European investors are buying farmlands in water rich areas, mostly in Africa and even in parts of the US to sell to areas that are water poor and dividing up last remaining farmland on earth to take advantage of what they call... “Empire crops” This has been happening under democractic and republican administrations. So again, what's going to be our answer? Will it b a departure from what colonialism wants, thinking about something other than yourself? What's it going to be after you slip that paper in that box?

  2. There's No Democracy to Save and No One is Telling Ya'll Not to Vote: Hammer, Sickles & Stickers

    30 DE AGO.

    There's No Democracy to Save and No One is Telling Ya'll Not to Vote: Hammer, Sickles & Stickers

    Intro: Fannie Lou Hamer's Credentials Committee Testimony (1964) for the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party which she co-founded. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRCUUzpfV7k Alt episode titles: Vote and/or Die The Revolution Will Not Be TikTok'd at the DNC Voting in this country was created as a means of giving those least empowered the veneer of control over a democratic system that was designed to be autocratic really and only with the interests of a small few white people in mind. And by those—I mean those constitutionally considered human. The constitution and declaration of independence could have been written w the blood of Black indigenous and Indigenous/First Nations so much of it was spilled to birth the current system whose efficacy and legitimacy we all find ourselves in constant debate about online and elsewhere. So yes ima think voting is the only means to achieve change or the most powerful change in a system that tells us routinely how to go about change and how not to go about change so that nothing will ever change, because if I stopped believing that, I’d have to actually do something more than what I’m told, I’d have to imagine, I’d have to create, I’d have to divest from whiteness, I might not make a million dollars, I might make a million enemies, I might have to go out after I vote and hit the streets and never leave, I might have to care about people the system has deemed undesirable and disposal I mean that’s a tall order for the average person in a white supremacist capitalist society that works me til I’m broken and breaks me til I’m dead I’ll take the fucking sticker instead!! Is that how the song goes? Join us for a special election episode exploring: Electoral College Origins and Inexplicable Explanations for Its Continued Use 200 plus years later Kamala Harris criticism - unprincipled and legitimate, misinformation and who it serves surprisingly, a critique of Harris is an endorsement of trump? The anxiety and fear around critiques of Kamala being co-opted and bastardized by white supremacists People online defending electoral politics by positing that there are no revolutions happening despite the fact that current revolutions happening everywhere...maybe even next door. - [ ] Mayamar - [ ] Kenya - [ ] Venezuela - [ ] Cop City - [ ] Land back campaigns - [ ] Palestine Outro: el Hajj Malik el Shabazz "Democracy is Hypocrisy Sticker" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNfAFfu6VD0 Recommended Reading and Resources Forthcoming at www.patreon.com/ihartericka

  3. Painting the Rainbow Green: The White Cisgaytriarchy’s Oeuvre of the Almighty Dollar

    20 DE JUN.

    Painting the Rainbow Green: The White Cisgaytriarchy’s Oeuvre of the Almighty Dollar

    Alt episode titles: Somewhere Over the Chase Bank, There is Community and Solidarity They Just Want Our Money, Not Our Pride: The Rainbow Capitalism Episode Intro Audio Excerpt: Sylvia Rivera (Rest in Power) interview from NYC Pride 2001 https://x.com/ben_0207/status/1800675695661842651 Who does rainbow capitalism benefit most? Who does it protect? What it is and what it is not Who gets seen in rainbow capitalism and who gets left out? What do we do without white cis het corporate crumbs? Will we be forced to rely and lean on each other, community, village and return pride to its roots as a riot, a protest? Rainbow capitalism is racism, facism, the anti-thesis to queer. It's not the queer celebrities making millions from marketing to and profiting from Black and Brown queer and trans folks on the margins that are going to save us, just US. If we are fighting for us to take back our resistance and liberation from the very apolitical, corporate, white pride structure. And we're fighting to liberate ourselves and to liberate one another, and we're doing so with a strong framework of solidarity, the question is not necessarily what's our responsibility, what's our response to anti-blackness, transphobia, cisheteronormativity, imperialist capitalism that attempts, with gusto, to pervade our movement and end our lives?

    5 DE JUN.

    Until Black Trans Women are Free, Ya'll Will Have Macklemore Ol' Bleach Blonde Ass ft Elle Moxley

    No Pride without Black Trans Liberation and Reparations--Not Rations, Pooh. Black trans liberation, much like Black liberation and the liberation of all oppressed peoples across the globe, requires a complete redistribution and reorganization of the current power structure/status quo--is GLAAD ready? Is GLSEN ready? Are you ready? Alt episode titles: How do we respond to white violence? (aka what's the proper procedure?) Coddling of the dominant narratives and who gets permission to be tardy to the party? The faux care economy and celebrity machine--who actually cares and do we, as marginalized peoples, need them to? Hoodrat to Headwrap to Lacefront ft Elle Moxley What resistance will require of us? What does solidarity demand of us?

    Who Tf Was I Friends With? Community and Friendships in the Age of Aquarius feat Elle Moxley

    Parts 1 and 2 If the shoe fit, go grab some socks "without community, there is no liberation, only the most vulnerable and temporary armistice between an individual and [their] oppression."--Audre Lorde Join us for a special episode of Black People Tell Black History (yes, it's giving very much Anita Baker 365 days of the year same ol love) with our love Elle Moxley talking about community, how some of ya;ll wouldnt know what it is if it fell and hit you in the head and how market forces, capitalism and white supremacy are driving us away from each other, the theft of our culture is driving us away from each other in an attempt to lessen our pride in our shared identity and even that's not enough to assure solidarity, gentrification is physically doing the job of isolating Black folks from one another. So what do we do? When it comes to liberation, everybody won't come (and don't want to) Everybody is not your friend and how we (mostly Ebony) are resisting all of that and subsequently learning the hard way. Thank you, ReesaTeesa.
