NEW ALL THOUGHT IS BLACK THOUGHT Podcast Episode #3: White People Are Smoking Crack: The Fantasy of July 4 from the Perspective of Black Thought
For July 4th, All Thought Is Black Thought podcast hosts G & O talk about the ways white people are still hitting the crackpipe of antiblackness in the fantasies they have about what life is like for Black folks. Because the power dynamic of slavery is still present in Black lives, Black people's knowledge of how slavery has continued to define our lives can empower us to effect radical change. That's why, in a time when the lens of slavery is among the sanest ways to look at the contradictions of modern Black life, many forces are trying to suppress Black folks' acknowledgement of how slavery remains present in our lives. When it comes to Black thought, policing isn't just done by the "boys in blue," but by other parties-- including educators, colleagues, neighbors, friends, and karens-- who are unofficially deputized to police Black bodies and Black thought.
