Left-wing author Ibram Kendi, author of the book "How to Be An Antiracist," triggered a tsunami of backlash on Saturday after suggesting that Amy Coney Barrett adopted to Haitian children to shield herself from accusations of racism.
What did Kendi say?
Kendi responded to a purported picture of Barrett with her two adopted Haitian children. The photo, however, was not of Barrett.
Some White colonizers "adopted" Black children. They "civilized" these "savage" children in the "superior" ways of White people, while using them as props in their lifelong pictures of denial, while cutting the biological parents of these children out of the picture of humanity.
And whether this is Barrett or not is not the point. It is a belief too many White people have: if they have or adopt a child of color, then they can't be racist.
I'm challenging the idea that White parents of kids of color are inherently "not racist" and the bots completely change what I'm saying to "White parents of kids of color are inherently racist." These live and fake bots are good at their propaganda. Let's not argue with them.
What was the response? Although Kendi did not specifically accuse Barrett of using her Haitian children as "props" to hide accusations of racism, many believed the implications of his comments were very clear and, ironically, racist.
"Are you suggesting that any white family who adopts black children are colonizers and that interracial adoption is somehow evil? Please clarify because if this is your position, it's an evil one," one person responded.
"Kinda sounds like you're projecting some weird racist s**t onto it idk man," another person said. "You ever thought that just maybe race is irrelevant to some people when it comes to loving another human.. Crazy I know," another person responded.
"Or two orphaned Haitian children are adopted by a white family who love these children as if they are their own and are loved by aunts, uncles, grandparents and cousins they otherwise would never have known," another person said.
"Ibram you going to adopt a starving child from Haiti or just b***h about white people adopting a child & giving them a opportunity they wouldn't ever have in poverty," another person said.
One person mocked, "'I wish those black kids had stayed in their Haitian orphanage instead of coming to America,"'said the anti-racist." "This person is a disgusting racist. Period," another person said.
Sen. Tom Cotton said, "Ibram Kendi launches a cruel, racist attack against Judge Barrett and her family. But what else would we expect from a fraud like him?" On Saturday, President Donald Trump officially nominated Barrett to be the next Supreme Court justice.
Well, at least no one can accuse that whitey of ever being a slave owner.
“...I’ve said this many times, but I truly believe the Left is Demon Possessed...”
Agree. You’ll get no argument from here.
There’s a reason we call Pelouzi; the godless, vile, demonic Botoxian. It’s just a shell of what once was a human female that sold her soul for power, fame, wealth, etc. The time is drawing near for the Big Daddy in hell to collect his final “payment”. The Reaper can’t come quick enough.
Yes! I suppose Kendi thinks the Clinton solution was much better for poor children in Haiti.
MD is not better. Maybe worse. Deep blue.
So if you don’t do it you’re a racist, and if you do do it, you’re a racist. Got it.
Ibram Kendi — whatever that is — is a racist by associating with a blatantly racist cult like BLM.
Only a left wing kook who is obsessed with race would trivialize adoption.
Romans 1:24-32 is a good explanation, and several OT passages also make it explicit,; “stiffened their hearts”, “put hooks in your jaws and lead you out”, etc. They literally cannot stop their demonic rantings.
The Twitter world was filled with lunatics last night - Some accused the Judge of “stealing” the kids from their families in Haiti.
Another accused her of using the Hatian kids as slaves and made to act as servants for the rest of the family.
Thankfully most were deleted late last night - but the crazies are still posting.
a lot of 2020 checks on that Romans list...but it’s worse than that.
Mr.Kendi is mentally ill.
Once again it’s shown that the Holy Scriptures hit the nail on the head with complete accuracy.
and with this the left is AGAIN projecting on others what they themselves actually are doing and actually believe. They always show their cards.
Abe Lincoln made a very poor decision that will ultimately destroy the Union way more than the actual Civil War.
Yes. That’s what racists do: adopt kids of another race to share their bounty. /S
Meanwhile, the Democrat “non-racists” do no such thing and instead call the adopters “racists.” A lifetime ago, their Democrat forebears had much ruder words to describe the adoptive parents.
Amen and AMEN!!!
I hope ACB is as smart as everyone says she is . If so, she’ll be able to turn every question and accusation around on these dem senators and make them look like a quivering mass of jello.
So mote it be.
That’s nothing. Bill De blasio changed his name to a french sounding one AND married a BLACK LESBIAN to “prove” he’s “not racist.”
>>>Charge of lesbianism in 3... 2... 1...<<<
Nah, I’m expecting any day now for these deranged lunatics to proclaim that she is unqualified for the position because she isn’t a black woman.
