It is supposedly unbecoming for a black person to avoid groupthink in favor of individualism and, the greatest sin of all, to vote for your personal interests instead of everyone else’s. This “undesirable” behavior earns you demonization as a traitorous Uncle Tom or a N – – – – r. You’ll be slapped with those labels for disagreeing with the rhetoric and strategies of those who prejudge us (in this case, expecting us to have left-leaning views) based on our race.

You’re an “Uncle Tom” for not wanting to live your life as a victim of supposed invisible oppressive systems. When you choose to reject racial animosity, you’re marked as a N – – – – r who ignorantly believes we don’t need to hate whites to uplift ourselves.

This letter needed to be written to help address inconsistencies on racism and to bring balance to a chronically imbalanced discussion. If we’re to be a truly “anti-racist” society, we should speak up just as loudly when someone we politically despise is racially abused. Doing what’s right has no political affiliation.
