WAIT, I got this! The Woke will say she's not really Black, she's Jamaican. And an immigrant yet, first became a citizen in 1997, unlike Colin Powell, who was not really Black either because he was Jamaican heritage. (And why not move on to Obama, who was half-American white and half African....) So this does not qualify as anti-racist; no way.

With this type of thing, we've got these choices,

It's funny that Kendi-style anti-racism is surprisingly simple, he has no need for such people, no matter their identity:

His opponents give you these examples if you still want to play by skin color and sexual identity:

HETERODOX BLACK WOMEN YOU NEED TO KNOW

The other day, @JohnHMcWhorter & @GlennLoury asked why there were no prominent heterodox black women, apart from @cvaldary.

There are! Some on this list of 10 are less & some more well-known. Let's make them all world-famous.

Right here is the Democratic Socialists of America position on topic, from an activist in the party, a diversified elite - bah humbug meaningless white educated elite crap:

There’s a reason why socialists care about class so much—the boss can’t co-opt rhetoric that centers class to undermine working class power!

Inclusion means nothing when it only serves to entrench workers’ exploitation! We want justice for all, not a diverse elite! pic.twitter.com/HuXATfbrQV

This ultraliberal language of the nonprofit industry and academia has continued to permeate in the corporate world precisely because it can serve the interests of capitalists without ceding any meaningful amount of power to marginalized groups.https://t.co/8Au9H1UJoH

Anyways, join @DemSocialists and support @organizeworkers if you want to build a working class movement in America!

this is why you don't see Bernie talk much identity politics, he knows it would alienate these people that are his true believers

p.s. anyone with a red rose symbol after their user name on Twitter is usually a supporter if not full member

p.s. Just FYI - Four main members of "The Squad" in the House are the only members of DSA in Congress - AOC, Tlaib, Cori Bush & Jamaal Bowman

Though not a political party, members of the DSA have run in elections and held office. In November 2018, two DSA members, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rashida Tlaib, were elected to the House of Representatives as Democrats. Eleven were elected to state legislatures.[9] In November 2020, Ocasio-Cortez and Tlaib were re-elected to the House, and were joined by two more DSA members, Cori Bush and Jamaal Bowman, who have also been seated as Democrats.
