The tweet is probably by a black nationalist. One has to be carefful that it is not from a Russian troll.
The FBI went on a snipe hunt for Black Identity Extremists who supposedly represented a terrorist threat. They came up with nothing.

American Descendants of Slavery is a group that believes reparations should go only to those with ancestors who suffered chattel slavery. Black immigrants from Africa and the Caribbean would be excluded. Michele Obama-Yes. Barack Obama-No. Proponents of the idea include a black professor from Duke University.

A member of the Black Hebrew Israelites and his female companion were involved the cold blooded murders of Jewish men in Jersey City. The group is known for anti-Semitism, not violence.

Nation of Islam led by Farrakhan is against all of them.
There are black groups that are homophobic, anti-Semitic, and against so-called intermarriage. The tweet could be real or it could be something sent out by Russia, etc. Either way, it should be condemned.

old news to me, been checking out Yvette Carnell's twitter feed for at least a year. And general debate about those issues. You constantly presume the readership here is ignorant about Afro-American cultural issues. Your posting here presumes we don't know the nuances of black life in the U.S., write as if it's monolithic and simplistic and I find that somewhat insulting.

Post-mortem on Boris & Corbyn. Note near end, how the center-left failed to fight off the far left, to disastrous result.

Perhaps this should live on the "Nancy killed 45,000" thread.
