JFC. That’s the ultimate woke word salad right there.

Black people now claiming everyone in Africa is black. What’s new.

He was apparently a north African Berber. So not what one would probably refer to as "white" but almost certainly not "black" either, like most Mediterranean people at that time.

Step 1: declare all institutions as racist

Step 2: unilaterally declare that all historical figures in said organization were black

Step 3: say that organization is now not only good, but speaking against organization is now racist because all historical figures have been declared as black

Step 4: watch organization implode and blame it on racism

Weird. Dylan didn't mention anything about that in this song.

Even to this day, Algerians aren't exactly black. Closer to white in fact.

People spend way too much time thinking of insignificant shite. Overthinking and overanalyzing is the great American pastime.

I have decided hipsters live in an alternative universe where this stuff matters.

Pretty soon they'll arrive at the hatred they really desire, Western Culture.

Zidane is a Berber


I wonder whether the person who wrote that article without knowing his family would say what color Zidane is

Does that mean I have to pull out the grass in my yard? Cultural appropriation?

Compared to me, he was black, and so was Jesus.

She could have made that statement without the “decenters whiteness” part and been completely on point but instead of focusing on the saintly aspects of St. Augustine she makes the primary assertion that the church overvalues white Saints and devalues black Saints. Come on now…

Well the “decenter whiteness” was her entire point. She’s just another prog who hates white people. Ignoring such people as they take over institutions is not working.
