In Black Skinhead , Brandi Collins-Dexter, former Senior Campaign Director for Color Of Change, explores the fragile alliance between Black voters and the Democratic party. Through sharp, timely essays that span the political, cultural, and personal, Collins-Dexter reveals decades of simmering disaffection in Black America, told as much through voter statistics as it is through music, film, sports, and the baffling mind of Kanye West.
While Black Skinhead is an outward look at Black votership and electoral politics, it is also a funny, deeply personal, and introspective look at Black culture and identity, ultimately revealing a Black America that has become deeply disillusioned with the failed promises of its country.
—————————————————-
We had been told that everything was fine, that America was working for everyone and that the American Dream was attainable for all. But for those who had been paying attention, there had been warning signs that the Obamas’ version of the American Dream wasn’t working for everyone. That it hadn’t been working for many white Americans was immediately and loudly discussed, but the truth―and what I set out to write this book about―was that it hadn’t been working for many Black Americans either. For many, Obama’s vision had been more illusion than reality all along.
When someone tells you everything is fine, but around you, you see evidence that it’s not, where will the quest to find answers lead you? As I went on the journey of writing this book, I found a very different tale about Black politics and Black America, one that countered white America’s long-held assumption that Black voters will always vote Democrat―and even that the Democratic party is the best bet for Black Americans.
My ultimate question was this: how are Black people being led away―not towards―each other, and what do we lose when we lose each other? What do we lose when, to quote Kanye West, we feel lost in the world.

Defend the police and kill all white people and rape their bitches is only way my brothers will throw off their chains of oppression
April 19th, 2023
you are an arsehole.
April 19th, 2023
Knobhead.
April 19th, 2023
Sorry, that’s meant to be defund the police. Makes sense now
April 19th, 2023
niggas can write? fascinating 🧐

All fücking nazis must fücking hang
April 20th, 2023
It is nice that the nazis can’t share their pamphlets on here. if we can’t eliminate them at least we can eliminate their literature.

@ Robbie22 The only people in public life advocating “defund the police” are Trump and his MAGA buddies.
e.g. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) tweeted “DEFUND THE FBI” last year.

@gweilo.
No, trump FUNDED the police. Nice try blaming people who want to make America great though but you know full well its Democrats such as AOC and kamala Harris who advocated defunding the police.
In places such as portland and San Francisco where the Democrats reign supreme they did just that and now look at those cities, crime is so rampant that major corporations such as Walmart, rei and walgreens have closed down citing mass shoplifting, which was all but decriminalised by law makers there.
Don’t you remember the summer of love when Saint Floyd of fentanyl died of an overdose while resisting arrest and all those cities, democrat run cities were burned and looted by antifa and the black lives matter hate group and kamala Harris, the democrat vice president created funds to bail out the rioters?
Do those people want to make America great again ? No of course not ! They want to destroy it.
If you are going to blatantly lie then you should at least be more versed than the people you are trying to lie to.
Yeah, OK, trump defunded the police. Whatever you say mate because having no police makes America great doesn’t it.
No, it makes it like some lawless hell hole like haiti

Oh and the fbi are not the police. The fbi are no longer fit for purpose as they are just another politicised democrat affiliated group the Democrats use to attack their political opponents.
Such as when biden and the attorney general merrick garland sicked them on trump for having declassified focuses at his residence yet turn a blind eye when biden had CLASSIFIED documents at HIS residence.
Disband the FBI Not just defund them.

@tenbensen
What nazis ? Where, can you point to one ? Apart from the azov battalion of Ukraine i really can’t think of any nazis except maybe a handful of nearly 100 year old German men.
And you want to murder them in cold blood ?
How very fascist of you.
April 22nd, 2023
Hahha, it’s always funny to see white men call names and act tough online, because they know they would get beat up in real life - by OTHER WHITE PEOPLE. I don’t even have to fight you guys anymore, because other white people will do it for me. You lost, it’s over, but it’s still funny to see these guys complain. Hahah, time’s up, whitey, better learn Spanish, Chinese or Arabic, because that’s your future. Hahahah!! LOL!!!

Das right koko !
And you can have all our fat blue haired women aswell

@Robbie22
Hey, you’re right. Honestly, you’ve made me think. There are no nazis on this site.
Because I’d imagine that to be be an actual nazi, you’d have to get up off your fat arse once in a while and attend a meeting. Buy a uniform of some kind. No, there are no nazis here.
But there are plenty of pathetic, failed, hateful manchildren on this site; stinking of cum and bile, lashing out because their lives have turned out so badly.
In other words, Robbie, you’re too sh1t even for the nazis. They’d laugh you out of the village hall.
