No it’s not
You cannot create a slur against whiteness
Everybody open a book now!!!!
Because they are poor. And what does any of this have to do with a child being bullied and then shot and killed by other boys in his school? Are you that incapable of coherent thought and common fucking sense?

Afrophobia is as old as the trans Atlantic salve trade. It’s inherent in Blackness
Imagine my shock reading excerpts of Zora Neale Hurston’s research and seeing enslaved ppl hurl derogatory insults at the latest batch of African slaves

Respectfully, this is not a conversation for people that are not part of the diaspora. If you haven’t lived in America or any other major city in the West, you don’t have the range to engage with some of these matters. Please sit this one out.
Regarding Javits Frimpong, I honestly don’t understand why people are getting angry under my post. Not every neighbourhood in America is safe for raising children. The Bronx has its share of serious crimes, sh00tings and gang activities. As parents, we must carefully consider the environment we expose our children to. Moving to America doesn’t automatically mean moving to a safer place. Sometimes the truth is uncomfortable, but we need to be realistic. May his soul rest in perfect peace, and I hope justice is served. 🕊️

Yesterday morning, 15-year-old Javits Frimpong was shot and killed near Crotona Park on his way to school. Javits came to the Bronx from Ghana just a year ago to join his father and begin a new life here. Our entire borough is mourning a young man who should have had his whole future ahead of him.
I am grateful to the officers of the 42nd Precinct who rushed Javits to St. Barnabas Hospital in an effort to save his life. Those responsible must be held accountable, and I urge anyone with information to call NYPD Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
Every child in the Bronx deserves to walk to school without fearing for their life, and no parent should ever have to endure what Javits’s father, Thomas, is enduring now. My heart is with him and with everyone in Claremont grieving today.

The kids are xenophobic, they’re anti-Black, they’re misogynistic, transphobic, ableist
The kids are us, I’m sorry
They direct the violence where they see us direct the violence
They’re in incredible pain and they don’t know what to do

James Marsden pays tribute to Patrick Stewart:
“We’ve lost a very special man. Kind and generous, with extraordinary talent and a wicked sense of humor, it was impossible not to feel charmed, enlightened and downright joyous in his presence. I’m grateful to have spent the time I did with you, Patrick. Rest well, my good friend.”

Unaware of how the music went?
"Late into a night of rehearsals on the evening before the broadcast, it was discovered, by Houston, that the arrangement wasn’t working. Houston identified the offending chords for the orchestra and created a new arrangement on the spot"

Whitney was, in fact, the one who stopped the orchestra during rehearsals because ONE musician was off. She was more than aware of how the music went...she quite literally had a hand in arranging what was played.
