FBA is anti-Black. it is a chronically online identity for the most bigoted and anti-intellectual demographic of Black people on social media. They advocate violence routinely against other Black people. Their rhetoric does not align with African aka Black americans in real life.

What has Tommy Curry said about the fact that the 2 black rightwing gubernatorial candidates are cishet black men? They got so much to say about ANY black woman in office but NOTHING to say about cishet black men’s legacy of rightwing politics.
Because he’s full of shit.
🚨 BREAKING: At the Daytona Beach midterm rally, Byron Donalds HITS BACK after David Jolly called his agenda "anti-black."
@ByronDonalds: "You see, my opponent, he said the other day that my agenda was anti-black... Can you believe the stupidness that comes out of that fraud David Jolly's mouth?"
"Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know if you know this... Your next governor has been Black his entire life."
"But the color of my skin is not what qualifies me to be your governor."
"The vision for a great Florida, the vision for a free Florida, the vision for a Florida where it doesn't matter what the color of your skin is, a Florida whether you live in Miami, the Panhandle, or the heartland, that we fight for all of Florida, that is what qualifies me to be your next governor."

Also a latino cop shot an innocent black man in the same city last week too. Yall so busy with diaspora wars that this shit is being overlooked.

You would think that a shooting of an African child in a predominantly latino community a week after another predominantly latino community held a klan rally would spark conversations about antiblackness in that community but I guess not.

This is how a lot of conservative rhetoric justifies its “guilty until proven innocent” mentality
Black Americans are quickly offended that people are calling the killers Black, without proof, but are you going to acknowledge and take accountability for the things we glorify in our community?
NYC in the urban area is very Chiraq coded… the teens like Drill Rap, they think killing is cool. They wear “sheistsys” and hoodies all summer.
Why would 3 kids get suspended, and instead of completing assignments and awaiting their return to school, they get a gun from someone, and plot to kill another kid before 10am in the morning in a school day!?
What type of music do you think those kids listen to?
What type of people do you think these kids are around?
Look within! Correct within! Our community needs to correct itself!!
