In the category of help me understand…

Y’all want Black folks to fight for (the possibility of) democracy when the folks who were elected to govern (in the so-called democracy) refuse to do so… And half of them are bent on burning it down.

Y’all got us f-d up. #wequitamerica #weoutside #sankofans

For all you carnival masqueraders:

What’s your drink on the road (in addition to water)?

Mine: Johnny Walker (or Hennessy) and Coconut Water.

Mother Fannie Lou Hamer. Her comments here rhyme with chapter 2 (America the Sinking Ship) in our book, “We Quit America: Our Exit From A Country Designed to Kill Black People.” #wequitamerica #sankofans

47’s saying he’s King aligns Anglo supremacy in King Henry VII’s declaration of the Act of Supremacy (1534)—reinforcing his position as the head of the nation & the Church (of England). Deeming himself & monarchs to follow as “the most supreme beings on earth.” Gods even. #wequitamerica #sankofans

We gave up the belief we could destroy US political & economic structures that create & capitalize on Black misery. We rather rested in the understanding that the US would destroy itself.

Is this the moment? Is this how it happens? Or is what we’re seeing something else? #wequitamerica #sankofans

What is this a sign of?

We’ve quit America and today a rainbow practically lands in our backyard at our home outside the US.

What quitting America looks like in these parts (view from my work desk).

Somewhere over the rainbow (The Wiz or Patti version of course)…

For session 2 of our study group on our book WE QUIT AMERICA we discussed manufactured myths & glaring warning signs in an Amerikkkan killing machine designed to kill Black people.

#1: Whiteness: The centerpiece of the Amerikkkan design.

He arrives at this conclusion after a lifetime of effort to get the country to deliver justice long demanded yet long denied to Black people. After years of toil, Robinson quit America. 4/ #wequitamerica #sankofans

His work was instrumental in the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa.

In his book Quitting America: The Departure of a Black Man from His Native Land he characterizes America as an unrepentant and unredeemable nation that will never do right by Black people. 3/ #wequitamerica #sankofans

Randall Robinson is known for both his advocacy and his writing. In 1977, he founded TransAfrica (originally the TransAfrica Forum) as a center for education and organizing to support the pursuit of justice for the people of Africa and the African Diaspora. 2/ #wequitamerica #sankofans

(Hubris) Historians and researchers suggest that if the ship were sailing slower, it would have likely missed the iceberg. 6/ #wequitamerica #sankofans

(Hubris) Thus, the captain of the Titanic was sailing at top speed before the fateful collision with the iceberg. He believed that having the reputation for size and speed would lead to repute for him, customer demand, and profitability for the ship’s owners. 5/ #wequitamerica #sankofans

Hubris: At the time the Titanic was the largest movable object ever built. Its imposing size communicated dominance & invincibility. While size mattered (😏😉) speed was also important. 4/ #wequitamerica #sankofans

Rather it was arrogance, hubris, and a refusal to heed warnings from those closest to the danger.

The same is sinking America. 2/
