Come, vent, chat meme a little. How was everyone’s Easter weekend? I had a uncomfortable but fine dinner with estranged relatives. I’m going to start posting the POC weekly threads on Mondays now.

    The Nation of Islam believe that white people were created in an ancient greek lab by a scientist named Yakub (Who is also the biblical Jacob). Because most white people don’t and never will experience actual racism something that sounds like a racist conspiracy theory against them is humorous to them and so they have co-opted it. The problem is that it very easily and depressingly often takes a step further and ends up becoming a joke on black people.
