Black Americans Need to Speak Out Against Their Assigned Victim Status
Lawrence Cloverfield February 14, 2019
The twists and turns of the past week, where we’ve seen two prominent Virginia Democrats come to the edge of career suicide thanks to their past flirtations with blackface, has started to make us wonder one thing: When is a prominent member or faction of Black America going to stand up and say, “Guys, this is really getting stupid. We don’t have to destroy a person’s livelihood because they dressed up like Michael Jackson thirty years ago. Like, really, it’s not necessary.â€
Anyone? Anywhere? Does no one have the courage to stand up and tell the social media mob to take a hike?
Don’t get us wrong. We’re enjoying this whole mess Virginia Democrats have found themselves in. Not because we think it’s such an unforgivable sin for Ralph Northam to have painted his skin brown while at medical school, but because it serves this party right. Maybe they’ll finally realize that no one can live up to the righteous, constantly-evolving rules of morality they’ve set for the culture.
Maybe they’ll finally realize that giving in, time and again, to the Twitter horde is only going to deepen their bloodlust. Maybe they’ll finally realize that people like Roseanne didn’t really deserve what they got.
