I mostly get my ideas from listening to Angela Davis
- Marx, Preface to the Critique of Political Economy
Lady is straight up known for her afro, and cannot be divorced from it, and no afro in the comic. Wild
Why does she have locs?! She’s also not darkskinned at all. This comic is borderline offensive. Put some respect on her name ya know?
literally willing to bet whoever made this just went with the first/only black woman wojak they found. pretty
I hope to one day be famous enough for someone to draw a wojak version of me.

on Obama's victory:
"She called that campaign a “victory, not of an individual, but of…people who refused to believe that it was impossible to elect a person, a Black person, who identified with the Black radical tradition.”
There was a hush in the room, as if in mourning of the death of brain cells."
Let's be honest. A lot of well-meaning comrades fell for Obama early on. The dude's PR campaign was crazy strong.
Yea she's been better on certain things than a lot of folks from back then. I feel like she's so cool that her downsides feel a bit bigger in proportion
Also I feel like no one mentioned this to me but apparently she's a lesbian which is also neat. Apparently she came out in 2020 / or became more known she was a lesbian in 2020?
All our heroes are flawed:
I could've told you that when her circle tried to take over CPUSA during the 1991 congress then stormed out to form a suckdem political action committee
didn't he literally attend a radical Black church? which he had to tone down and disown to even have a shot at becoming pres?
Obama is objectively the most radical president in US history. The lesson to take from this is that voting can never solve anything
There was a bit in his book where he talks about meeting owning class people and the effects that regularly sharing space with them had on him. Something to the effect of, “I learned to censor myself on topics where I knew they’d never agree.” That alone is a great picture of deradicalization happens.
yeah. If he had stayed radical, he'd never've been president (or even senator)
