Are we going to talk about how Diddy invested millions into the Twitter acquisition rather than investing in Black owned-businesses or nah?

I haven't seen anyone talk about this within the community. It's very interesting when you consider how Twitter is failing rn.

NYC politics

@jasminediaz It’s a similar sentiment I feel whenever a Latinx politician in NYC starts glad handing the White centrist politician. Then eventually starts to vote against the policies that had originally elected them to their position by the community. Growing tired of the aspirations to attain the status of proximity to whiteness.

Racial identity

@nisadani I mean I understand the appeal, proximity to whiteness, but damn...

In the end, we're still Black and Brown. Money changes the *perception* of things quite a bit.

Racial identity

@jasminediaz It truly does and it’s sad that our communities continue to look toward capitalism as means to elevate ourselves when it’s often employs tool of white supremacy that only perpetuates the inequality.
