Tiktok is on FIRE calling out the white supremacy we witnessed today!!!!
[Transcript: Regarding the news today, I don’t see a lot of people making this connection, so I’m gonna make this connection.
This is not the first coup to happen in America. The first successful coup in America was the 1898 Wilmington insurrection in which a biracial government was overthrown by white supremacists. 60-250 black citizens were murdered and over 100 black politicians were removed from their offices. In the aftermath over 100,000 black registered voters fled North Carolina. They will not teach you this in school.
When I look at the attempted coup taking place right now, especially on the day where we just elected our first black senator from Georgia, all I can see is a nation that has failed to address white supremacy and anti-blackness at the core.
I’ve been sitting around all day watching people on the news say “This is crazy. This is America, this shouldn’t be happening.” Yeah. This is Amerikkka. That’s why it’s happening.]
