Ketanji graduated magna cum laude from Harvard. You dropped out of community college to cosplay as a fascist. “Diversity hire” is what racists say when a Black woman earns something they never could.

Fun fact. After several African nations gained independence in 1960, there was a shortage of skilled professionals & public servants, Haiti sent 7500 teachers, doctors, engineers & other skilled professionals to fill these roles. 3000 Haitian professionals went to Congo. The rest went to Benin, Cameroon & other Francophone African countries

💥 Our new issue "Black Indigeneities" is out! It's urgent to follow this issue’s contributors when they note that very notions of Blackness and Indigeneity emerge from an epistemological framework focusing on European settler colonialism (especially in the North Atlantic...).
